法拉第讨论有一个独特的形式，它有一个多世纪的历史，但近年来越来越受欢迎。代替了更常见的口头报告程序，每个演讲者在会议前提交一份完整的论文，然后只做5分钟的工作总结。剩下的时间分配给代表们提问和讨论，他们有机会提前阅读提交的文件并准备他们的问题。这导致了一场相当活跃的讨论，介于传统的会议问题和现场、非匿名的同行评议之间。对于绝大多数代表，演讲者，甚至会议组织者来说，这是他们第一次参加法拉第讨论，虽然肯定不适合胆小的人，但健康的讨论肯定比通常的会议形式更令人兴奋。关于二氧化碳利用的法拉第讨论是此类主题中的第一次，并在谢菲尔德大学的边缘会议中心举行（图1）。来自英国的代表和来自世界各地其他22个国家的代表一起参加了这次会议，这反映了二氧化碳利用日益重要。继科学委员会主席Peter Styring教授（谢菲尔德大学）和RSC的出版编辑Mary Macleod和Amy Hazlehurst对该格式的欢迎和介绍之后，Martyn Poliakoff教授爵士（诺丁汉大学）就二氧化碳利用的一般主题进行了非常有趣的演讲，以及他对如何最好地将该领域推向实际应用的看法。马丁还分发了一份标准清单，形成了一个方便的首字母缩略词“CO2CHEMISTRY”，它建议如何评判新技术的可持续性，并鼓励我们在会议期间投票选出最符合这些标准的论文。C催化作用至关重要O二氧化碳的来源？明天的世界可能会不同——比现在的过程更清洁？H大批量还是高价值产品？
Faraday Discussions have a distinctive format which is over a century old, and yet has been growing in popularity in recent years. In place of the more usual programme of oral presentations, each speaker instead submits a full paper in advance of the conference and then only presents a 5 minute summary of the work. The remainder of the time is allocated to questions and discussion from the delegates, who have had the opportunity to read the presented papers in advance and prepare their questions. This leads to a rather lively discussion which lies somewhere between traditional conference questions and live, non-anonymous, peerreview. For the vast majority of delegates, speakers, and even conference organisers this was their first time attending a Faraday Discussion and, whilst certainly not for the faint-hearted, the cut and thrust of a healthy discussion was certainly more stimulating than the usual conference format. The Faraday Discussion on Carbon Dioxide Utilisation was the first of its kind on the subject and was held at the Edge Conference Centre at the University of Sheffield (Fig. 1). It was a reflection of the growing importance of Carbon Dioxide Utilisation that delegates from the UK were joined by delegates from 22 other countries spanning all corners of the world. Following a welcome and introduction to the format by Professor Peter Styring (University of Sheffield), the Chair of the Scientific Committee, and the RSC’s Publishing Editors for the event, Mary Macleod and Amy Hazlehurst, Professor Sir Martyn Poliakoff (University of Nottingham) gave a highly entertaining lecture on the general subject of CO2 utilisation, and his views on how best to carry the field forward to real applications.Martyn also distributed a list of criteria, forming the handy acronym ‘‘CO2CHEMISTRY’’, which suggested how new technologies could be judged for sustainability, and encouraged us to vote for the presented paper that best fit these criteria during the conference.
