MAJOR PARTNERS and SPONSORS§ § as of April, 2014, If you wish to become an exhibitor or join our sponsors list please contact us at [email protected] « Large-Volume CO2 Utilization : Enabling Technologies for Energy and Resource Efficiency» 3rd Edition How can we transform large volumes of CO2 into fuels and materials needed for quality of life and sustainable development? Can the field of CO2 valorization also contribute to the current policy objectives in the field of climate change mitigation? The Forum will address the latest answers from leading international academic, industrial and policy-influencing actors to assess the emerging chemical, bio-engineering, and process innovations based on renewable energy sources and clean technologies. September 25-26, 2014 Lyon, France AIM CO2 chemical and biochemical valorisation is a desirable environmental solution and a viable business and research opportunity. The CO2 Forum aims at reinforcing such position by bringing together relevant policy orienters, corporate business, and academia researchers in an open 2-day conference for an update on three main topics:  Current policy and environmental context (CO2 taxation, CO2 regulation, socio economic analyses)  Business opportunity (“negative cost” chemical)  Scientific and technologic innovation with sustainable energy source and clean technologies. INTRODUCTION Sustainability requires that anthropogenic over-production of CO2 should be utilized as much as possible to useful and sustainable products. Science is therefore confronted to this challenge: transform this stable molecule into value-added products with energy from sustainable sources. This requires chemical, bio-engineering, and process innovations. These innovative solutions will be facilitated by frequent interdisciplinary exchanges at the highest scientific and technological level. In this context, the Sustainable Development Chair of CPE Lyon organizes the biennial CO2 forum on the subject by bringing together :  Policy orienters and scientific experts (academia and industry) in CO2 utilization  Pioneers in chemical and biochemical science and engineering  Specialists in sustainable energy sources. This regular forum intends to complement the ongoing efforts around the mitigation of CO2 emission and CO2 capture and storage. PARTICIPANTS The CO2 Forum will gather participants and speakers from the academic and industrial research and innovation community. The Forum will also interest climate policy experts from governement and civil society as well as cleantech investment funds. Large-volume CO2 Recycling to Fuels and Materials PROGRAMME The programme is based on leading plenary speakers who will provide science, technology and policy perspectives. Oral communications, two associated workshops (“Industrial Biotechnology” and “Strategic European Research Agenda”, see next column), planary poster, panel and round-table sessions will expand on all major themes.
