The coupling of chemistry and process engineering using sub- and supercritical fluids provides an interesting alternative to solution and gas-phase approaches for designing functional materials as well as addressing their end-of-life recycling
Yesterday our C2M group had the honor of hosting two distinguished scientists:
Dr. Cyril Aymonier from ICMCB in Bordeaux, France and
Dr. Luisa F. Cabeza from Leeida, Spain
After our periodic group meeting, Cyril presented on "Circular chemistry in supercritical fluids"
The use of supercritical fluids for recycling and end-of-life considerations of complex multi-material products. This includes dismantling and recycling of permanent magnets, composites, solar panels, batteries and more
C2M colleagues investigate the structural, electronic, and thermoelectric properties of a newly discovered allotrope of tricalcium aluminate using DFT. They predict enhanced figure of merit, showing promise for cementitious energy harvesting applications.

Defensa de la tesis doctoral de Mohammad Rahjoo en @csic-UPV/EHU, dirigida por Jorge Dolado de @csic-UPV/EHU y Esther Rojas de @psaciemat, ambos miembros de @red_tes y con la presencia de @luisafcabeza en el tribunal. ¡Enhorabuena al nuevo doctor!
This thesis investigates using geopolymer based concrete as an alternative thermal energy storage (TES) material to conventional ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete, particularly for high temperature concentrating solar power (CSP) applications where OPC degrades.

@radioeuskadi@CFMdonostia C2M team is developing "photonic concrete" that can reflect sunlight and dissipate heat, aiming to decrease temperatures.
The Miracle project is a European Union funded research and innovation project aimed at developing a new type of concrete called Photonic Metaconcrete.
In a collaborative effort involving researchers from @CFMdonostia, @DIPCehu, @tecnalia, and @psaciemat, a study published in the Journal of Energy Storage (@ElsevierEnergy) shows potential of geopolymer (GEO) concrete as a high-temperature thermal energy storage (TES) material.
@CFMdonostia@DIPCehu@tecnalia@psaciemat @ElsevierEnergy The research identified air velocity as the primary factor influencing thermal storage capacity. Additionally, the study investigated the impact of incorporating metallic tubes in TES modules on thermal storage capacity and heat transfer efficiency.
