Low Carbon Energy Conversion Technology Center Made Significant Progress

After one year's development, Low Carbon Energy Conversion Technology Center (LCECTC), which was jointly established by SARI and Lu' an Mining Industry Group Co., Ltd, successfully completed its experiment platform of the first phrase.


  After one year's development, Low Carbon Energy Conversion Technology Center (LCECTC), which was jointly established by SARI and Lu' an Mining Industry Group Co., Ltd, successfully completed its experiment platform of the first phrase. Based on the three technology platforms, LCECTC has taken on five national and provincial projects and filed six invention patents. The research team of LCECTC includes two scientists of the CAS Hundred Talents, two of Shanghai Thousand Talents Program, which well reflect the advantage of achieving construction and development by the integration of government, industry, college and institute.
  Opening Ceremony
  Low Carbon Energy Conversion Technology Center is an integrated innovative scientific research platform jointly established by SARI and enterprises, aiming to conduct frontier researches and commercialization collaboration to make contribution to the development of our country's clean energy technology. Supported by Chinese Academy of Sciences and Shanghai Municipal Government, LCECTC completed its lab construction shortly after the opening ceremony on March 15th, 2010. On July 27th, 2011, the "Collaboration agreement of phase II low carbon energy technology development" was signed by Prof. FENG Songlin, President of SARI and Mr. LI Jinping, President of Lu' an Group.
  Currently, LCECTC has already completed its platform of catalyst preparation, high flux reactor, dynamic analysis and testing and has successfully applied five national and provincial projects including CO2 Reforming of CH4 to Syngas. In the meantime, LCECTC has conducted extensive collaboration with world-renowned companies including BP, Shell, TOTAL and PNNL.
  International Cooperation
  According to our country's energy structure and the sustainable development strategy, the development trend of energy technology will move from high carbon to low carbon or even zero carbon to realize the full use and minimum emission of carbon resources, reaching a win-win situation with efficient utilization in an environment–friendly way. Therefore, efficient utilization of carbon resources with relatively less negative effect on the environment is the key of the development. LCECTC integrates the geographic advantage of Shanghai and Shanxi and exerts certain influence to the low carbon conversion and utilization of coal-based carbon resources. With well-established platforms and the development momentum, according to the strategic requirements of the country and industry and the technology development trend, LCECTC will further solve the major common technological issues through technology integration, utilizing talent and information advantage to support the development of clean energy industry.
