>> The conference is a platform to describe, compare and evaluate new and innovative technologies, which maximise energy conversion while minimizing undesirable emissions. Attention is also given to the improvement of existing energy systems which will still be used for a long time.
>> The proposed subjects are the following:
- Advancements in clean combustion
- Improvement of existing conventional power plants
- Combustion or gasification of biomass
- Global warming gases abatement
- CO2 capture and sequestration technologies
- Engine efficiency and pollutant emissions in transports
- Use of alternative fuels in engines
- Reduction of emissions of NOx, SOx, CO, particles, heavy metals
- Fuel processing (gasification, reforming) in energy systems
- Utilization of hydrogen as an energy carrier in energy systems
- Integration of biomass and refuse derived fuels in the fuel economy
- Use of polygeneration in industry and houses
- Heavy metals emissions
