Scope:
Environmental and energy problems are the 2 greatest challenges to be overcome in this century related to the survival of humanity. Among functional materials, we will focus on research on environmental catalysts, new substances having energy storage and conversion functions, devices, and the processing technologies in this symposium. Both of these materials and environmental technologies are scientific fields where Japan is leading the world and are indispensable for a low carbon society like society 5.0. In this symposium, recent research outputs about environment and energy materials and devices are presented by G2 group members in the MEXT dynamic alliance project of 5 laboratories (RIES, IMRAM, LCR, ISIR, IMCE) under. In addition, the oral/poster presentations that stretch across the materials and environmental fields by the participants of the 28th annual meeting are also widely welcome.
