The thermodynamics of electrolytes gets a boost from Europe
Electrolytes play an integral role in many industrial processes. Their thermodynamic properties are studied by IFPEN’s experts within the framework of collaborative projects and a dedicated chair at IFP-School. To reinforce scientific exchange, Fufang Yang, a young researcher employed by the DTU (Danish Technical University), joined IFPEN’s teams to investigate several fundamental questions concerning the thermodynamics of electrolytes.
Establishing a green river transport fleet: LCA and prospective modeling at the heart of the FLUENT study
Based on IFPEN’s expertise (via its IFPEN Transports Energie Carnot Institute) in the field of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) and prospective modeling, the FLUENT (FLUvial ENergie Transition, or river energy transition) study evaluated the global and multidimensional consequences of establishing a green river fleet with a view to guiding the drawing up of the French national roadmap.
