Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
'The FUNEA vision is to develop an integrated and multidisciplinary research and training programme in the field of inorganic nitrides for energy applications. In terms of fundamental research, the FUNEA aims to advance the state-of-the-art knowledge and understanding of inorganic nitrides and mixed nitride-anion systems by achieving the ability to synthesise, manipulate, characterize, understand and model binary and ternary nitrides and oxonitrides with functional properties. By this a breakthrough in the nitride chemistry will be achieved steering in a new era for materials with advanced functionality and exceptional levels of performance. In terms of technological applications, the FUNEA focuses on the energetic applications of novel nitride-based materials with this addressing the main needs of the 21st century. To meet this vision, eight European academic research groups with complementary expertise in the synthesis, processing and characterization of materials and five industrial partners, each of whom have made a commitment to study these new functional nitrides, have decided to create a network of scientific cooperation with the following goals: (i) to create an interdisciplinary approach to the synthesis, processing and characterization of novel nitrides for energy applications, (ii) to train high-quality young researchers, experienced in the interdisciplinary science of the nitrides. These young professionals will lead the field forward and onward to its bright future in the European science and technology. Specifically, FUNEA aims to train 11 ESRs and 2 ERs with an overall target of 40% women researchers, and (iii) to establish a European network of scientists in academic institutes and industry in the field of inorganic nitrides, that will continue to grow and enhance European competitiveness over the next years.'
Introduzione (Teaser)
EU funding is supporting research into novel nitride-group chemicals for use in energy production and storage.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Nitrides are a promising group of chemicals with potential for a wide range of industrial applications. However, there is a need for more interdisciplinary cooperation to propel research in this area forward.
The 'Functional nitrides for energy applications' (http://www.funea.tu-darmstadt.de/funea/aboutus/index.en.jsp (FUNEA)) project aims to support research in this area by promoting interdisciplinary collaborations and training young researchers.
Eight European research groups and five industrial partners make up the FUNEA research consortium. Together, they will develop new methods for synthesis, processing and characterisation of new nitride chemicals, with the potential for new commercial and industrial uses.
The consortium has hired 13 researchers, and training of these researchers has begun. Three practical courses have been organised and conducted to teach the researchers practical and technical skills to further their own research.
These researchers will now focus on novel research into nitride chemistry for energy applications. FUNEA will move the state of the art forward in the exciting field of nitride chemistry.
