39th International Combustion Symposium

Low-Carbon Combustion 2022

The French and UK sections of the Combustion Institute have hosted a technical meeting on Low Carbon Combustion on 5-6 April 2022 at the Engineering Department at the University of Cambridge, UK.

Videos of the keynotes and contributed talks of Low-Carbon Combustion 2022 are now online here.

A total of 6 keynote and 34 contributed talks were held in sessions on Solid Biomass Combustion, Biofuels, CO2 capture and utilisation, ammonia, hydrogen and metals combustion, accompanied by a poster session. The keynote talks provided overviews of the scientific, technical, as well as broader implications for the implementation of new energy technologies. The discussions were very stimulating, and provided a much needed occasion for young researchers to present their recent work, network, make friends, and learn what is happening in the field.

The meeting was held in hybrid mode, with 68 in-person attendees, and 44 virtual participants. It was rewarding to see that the technology now allows for a very smooth delivery and participation of both in-person and virtual participants, with a lively Q&A involving all.
