The need for discovering methods for the generation of liquid fuels using recycled emissions (such as CO2, water, and other small molecule feedstocks) is imperative for a more efficient energy portfolio. The ability to store energy in molecular bonds provides the opportunity for a vast storage capacity. Indeed, the world around us has perfected this process of energy storage in chemical fuels in the form of photosynthesis for the growth of plants and biomass. Our understanding and capability of mimicking this process synthetically is severely limited, however, this provides the urgent drive for better understanding and advancement of the production of light harvesting materials for energy conversion to useful products. Our symposium will focus on utilizing uniquely orchestrated frameworks involving light driven catalytic architectures that work in concert with electrochemical systems.
This symposium is focused on utilizing uniquely orchestrated frameworks involving light absorbing and selective catalytic architectures for small molecule activation targeting fuel formation. We aim to highlight advances in the realization of fuel forming pathways pertaining to extended semiconductor architectures, molecular catalyst anchoring to surfaces, hybrid photoelectrode understanding, catalytic cascades, computational efforts, and microenvironment impacts on the fuel forming process. As part of the event, we will aim to emphasize DEI practices in the workplace and to recognize the importance of international influence to effectively solve global challenges.

Submitting Abstracts
Select either ENFL or CATL as division (your preference)
For submitting abstracts for selected speaker talk (limited space) to compliment our invited speakers, indicate this option, before selecting "Photoelectrocatalytic Fuel Formation" which should then appear. Selected speakers for this symposium will be for a 10-minute presentation.
We also encourage interested individuals to submit to the "Advances in Energy and Fuels" (ENFL) or the "General Catalysis" (CATL) poster sessions
