Su₂n-Cat-CO₂ Workshop 2026
29.09. - 30.09. 2026, Oldenburg (Oldb.)
We are very pleased to welcome you to the University of Oldenburg to the Su₂n-Cat-CO₂ Workshop of the working group Hybrid Catalysts to welcome you. In this context, we are addressing pressing challenges in modern chemistry: the development of new materials and technologies for a sustainable future. This workshop is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space as part of the SINATRA funding programme.
About the workshop
At the centre of our discussions are innovative approaches at the interface of materials science and catalysis with the aim of developing develop novel materials for a sustainable future. sustainable future. The focus is particularly on:
Hybrid materials: Design and synergies of multifunctional nanostructured systems, from organic-inorganic composite compounds to complex inorganic-inorganic inorganic-inorganic hybrid hybrid structures.
Surface processes: An in-depth understanding of chemical processes and mechanisms at solid surfaces as a key for the strategic development of (low-dimensional) functional materials.
Sustainable technologies: New pathways for solar fuel production, such as photocatalytic H₂-productionas well as innovative approaches to (photochemical) CO₂-activation and utilisation.
This workshop will be a platform for intensive exchange between researchers at all career levels from academia and industry. Students are just as welcome as experienced researchers. We especially invite interested parties from non-academic institutions to participate in order to discuss current results, establish new co-operations and jointly contribute to sustainable and future-proof chemical technologies.
We look forward to inspiring days and a lively exchange!
