産総研触媒化学研究部門では、様々な分野で活躍している大学、公的研究機関、企業等の方々をお招きし、講演会を開催することで分野の垣根を越えた連携の実現を目指しています。前研究ユニット(触媒化学融合研究センター)から引き続いての開催となります。多くの方々のご参加をお待ちしております。 日時:2025年5月22日(木)16:00~17:30 ◆Fueling the Future ◆Prof. Kuo-Wei Huang The global population of 8.0 billion consumed approximately 15.2 Gtoe of energy in total, averaging 20.1 TW. Over 80% of this demand is met by carbon-based fossil fuels, leading industrial societies to drive the atmospheric CO₂ concentration from 280 ppm (preindustrial) to over 420 ppm as of last year. This steady rise in CO₂ is strongly linked to global warming, sea level rise, and ocean acidification. To mitigate environmental impact and overcome fossil fuel limitations, the projected increase in energy demand must be met through low-carbon energy production and carrier systems. In this presentation, current global energy trends and future alternatives will be examined, concluding with our research on formic acid as a low-carbon hydrogen and energy carrier, as well as an e-fuel. |
