Solution Chemistry of Technology Critical Elements
Trace elements, including the PGE (platinum group elements), REE (rare earth elements), and others like Nb, Ta, Ga, In, Ge, and Te, are often referred to as technology critical elements or TCEs. The rate of their production and utilisation has particularly increased through their use in high-tech applications.
An Advanced Workshop on Solution Chemistry of TCEs will be held on 22-23 January 2019 at the University of Białystok, Poland, organised by the European COST action TD1407 NOTICE that deals with TCEs, from environmental processes to human health threats. The workshop is co-chaired by Montserrat Filella (University of Geneva, Switzerland), member of the IUPAC Subcommittee on Solubility and Equilibrium Data (SSED) and Beata Godlewska-Żyłkiewicz, (University of Białystok, Poland).
The scientific program will include master classes delivered by Ed Tipping, (Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, Lancaster, UK) and Darren Rowland, (The University of Western Australia), followed by short presentations and brain-storming discussions. The workshop is of interest to you if you are: working on analytical, environmental, biological or industrial issues related to TCEs; actively using speciation codes for trace element speciation calculation (even if not TCEs); measuring equilibrium constants; or feeding equilibrium constant databases (even if not TCEs).
