Dear reader,
First of all, the best wishes for 2022! This is the very first newsletter of the TU Delft e-Refinery Institute. With this newsletter – which will typically appear four times a year – we will keep you up-to-date about progress within our institute and about other exciting news related to the area of e-Refinery. Although 2021 was again a challenging year – with the continuing COVID pandemic – we managed to make good progress with our institute. You can read about it in this newsletter.
Kind regards, also on behalf of the e-Refinery board,
Maryam Alimoradi Jazi (Managing Director e-Refinery) |

| Delft scientists put the spotlight on combined capture and conversion of CO2 |
| You can capture CO2 and convert it electrochemically into valuable products. However, both capturing CO2 and converting it require a lot of energy. However, a correct combination of both processes can limit energy loss and save many materials, says David Vermaas's research group from Delft in a recently published article. The article, which appears on the cover of Nature Catalysis bundles the various ideas about this. |

| Vacancies at TU Delft Climate Action Programme |
| The newly launched Climate Action Programme at TUD is focusing not only on additional investments in research and education but also improving the sustainability of the TU Delft campus. One of the goals of this research programme is to identify the areas where there is a need to strengthen TUD capacities to keep up its (inter)national reputation as climate action university. To approach this goal several tenure-track positions have been developed in this program. The 3mE and AS faculties are hosting three positions which will be in close connection with e-Refinery expertise. |
