    13.30 - 15:30 Afternoon Sessions and Workshops

    Each session

      • Is chaired and organized by a session committee with people covering more departments at DTU or external to DTU. 
      • The committee selects which abstracts should be accepted and how the will be allocated as talks and posters.
      • The committee makes the detailed plan for each session, and also selects winners of the session poster prize.
      • A session is limited to 2 hours and several will run in parallel.
        A suggested plan for each session could be as:
        • Starting with talks
        • Then a period with pitch-talks from each poster/laptop presenter.
        • Finishing with time for poster/laptop-viewing, discussion and networking. The Lunch and Social event time can also be used for viewing posters.

      Workshops:

      • These are opportunities to learn more about a specific theme and do not have contributed talks/posters.
      • Please sign up for the workshops in the conference registration to participate for the full workshop duration, unless the workshop is stated as 'drop-in' and hence open for entry at all times

      A: Assessing Sustainability of Technologies

      - Life cycle assessment, impact, risks and improvements 

      Claiming something is green is easy, but being able to document the expected impact is becoming increasingly important for researchers and industry. The assessment can involve complex resource, material and energy processes and the emissions to the environment. For example as found in waste management, energy systems, biofuel production, wastewater treatment, and sludge management systems.

      C: Competence Development in Sustainability

      - Innovation, entrepreneurship and education

      Developing sustainable technologies and usage of resources requires continuous update of scientists and engineers to the latest knowledge in this complex field to ensure the best solutions. Innovation and entrepreneurship now require additional considerations of environmental impacts. Similarly the education of the future engineers and scientists must include these aspects. This session deals with how competences in sustainable development can be improved.

      Strategy and actions - teaching sustainability 

      At DTU a number of initiatives exist with the aim of ensuring that all students will get--at least--a good understanding of what sustainably is, and what it means to their area of expertise. During this workshop we ask; what are the core green teaching activities at DTU, and do we do enough to ensure that future engineers are able to do green business?

       

      6 x 7 minutes presentations will inspire the debate:

      L: Smart Liveable Cities

      - Urbanization, Buildings, Transport, Water, Infrastructure

      How can urban infrastructure and architectural engineering lead to more sustainable and smart liveable cities? Real time control of environmental systems is increasingly optimizing supplies, drains, transport and building conditions. Industry and households  become more integrated with control of district heating systems and intelligent energy systems for exploitation of wind and solar energy. Automatic flood warning systems may contribute to climate adaptation, and blue-green multifunctional areas may become crucial elements in urban planning. All in pursuit to mitigate climate impacts and reduce the urban impact as the world’s population unavoidably becomes increasingly urbanized.

      R: Biorefining

      - Developing biofuels from biomass

      Integrated production of energy carriers from residual biomass is an essential part of a sustainable future. Identification and development of optimal combinations of substrates, conversion processes and utilization of the biofuels is a very complex process. This session invites speakers to present new, innovative and promising technologies for sustainable production of biofuels in a biorefinery context, e.g. including biogas, bioethanol, biohydrogen as well as any associated high-value products produced together with the biofuels.

      S: State of the Earth

      - Monitoring and mapping the state of the environment on a local and global scale.

      Many regions of the world suffer from the lack of available local environmental data or political restrictions on information exchange. With the advances in the availability, resolution and quality of remote sensing this is in part being resolved. In addition advances in in situ sensor technology, widespread deployment and new data analysis techniques is providing a wealth of in sight and information for mapping the state of the environment. In this session we aim to focus on recent development in monitoring and mapping capabilities both from space and in situ as well as on local and global scales.

      T: Sustainability in a chemical world

      - Chemicals and Nanoparticles, their toxicology and risks

      The societal challenges related to organic chemicals and nanoparticles in the environment are profound, multifaceted and wide ranging and the question is how we can and are to achieve sustainability and a future circular economy in a world that relies heavily on access to industrial chemicals. In this session, we propose to invite speakers to present on what we know about uses of chemicals and the benefits of using chemicals, their risks and challenges related to assessing their risks in relation to human health and the environment. Finally, how we can achieve sustainable uses of chemicals in the future. These questions raises a series of the societal, scientific and technical challenges related to chemical substances that we believe many will be interested in discussing.

      W: Water & Sustainability

      -  Ensuring water resources for the future

      Water resources need to be managed efficiently and jointly with other resources. Treatment technology and recovery is of rising global importance. This also involves sensor technology to gather information on water in cases spanning from industrial production processes to environmental or climate related measurements, i.e. from managing and optimizing efficiency in consumption and recycling to assessing resources’ quality as well as depletion and replenishment.

      X: Is your technology really sustainable?

      - Optimize your research towards documented sustainable solutions

      This workshop will introduce you to the different aspects and methods of assessing the overall impact of a technology and documenting 'how green it is'. This will help guiding and optimizing your research towards documented sustainable solutions.

      After a brief introduction to the fundamental principles of life cycle assessment (LCA) as a tool to assess environmental sustainability we will look more into the details of concrete projects and help identify the environmental hot spots and the main environmental improvement possibilities for your technology or project, looking across its whole life cycle from the cradle (raw material extraction) to the grave (end of life and potential new life in other products), and addressing all the relevant environmental impacts.

      We have a limited number of LCA experts available so register early and provide input to have a discussion of your case during the workshop.

      • Be introduced to the different sections of a typical post doc application, such as state-of-the-art, research plan and budget
      • Benefit from talking to other early stage researchers
      • Do a one-page-proposal of your best research idea
      • Get some sound writing principals and some tips for the successful application
      • Learn where to get more help when applying for external research funding
      • It is our ambition that you leave the workshop with a better possibility of writing a successful application

      Aimed at Post docs, but others are very welcome too. We hope that you later can follow a one-day course in the spring.
