PI: Sievers, CarstenProposal ID: 1703909The award provides travel expenses for U.S. researchers to attend the International Young Scientist Symposium on Catalytic Biomass Conversion (IYCBC) that will be held at the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences, China, on July 11-13, 2017. The symposium will provide the U.S. researchers the opportunity to share research experiences in the biomass conversion area with peers from Europe and Asia, thus ensuring continued worldwide competitiveness of U.S. catalytic science and technology in biomass conversion to fuels and chemicals.The IYCBC will include topics like preparation and characterization of novel catalyst materials, conversion of cellulose and lignin model compounds, design of catalysts and processes, and life-cycle analysis and carbon footprint tracking for biomass-derived chemicals. The U.S. researchers will be exposed to the different biomass research and technology practices of their European and Asian counterparts in an environment that will promote long term collaboration. Such international collaborations are vital for finding sustainable solutions for the production of fuels and chemicals via catalytic approaches that have minimal impact on the environment.

该奖项提供美国研究人员参加催化生物质转化国际青年科学家研讨会的旅费，该研讨会将于2017年7月11日至13日在中国科学院大连化学物理研究所举行。研讨会将为美国研究人员提供与欧洲和亚洲同行分享生物质转化领域研究经验的机会，从而确保美国在生物质转化为燃料和化学物质方面的催化科学和技术继续在全球范围内具有竞争力。IYCBC将包括新型催化剂材料的制备和表征、纤维素和木质素模型化合物的转化、催化剂和工艺的设计，以及生物质衍生化学品的生命周期分析和碳足迹跟踪。美国研究人员将在一个促进长期合作的环境中接触到欧洲和亚洲同行不同的生物质研究和技术实践。这种国际合作对于通过对环境影响最小的催化方法为燃料和化学品的生产找到可持续的解决办法至关重要。
