International Workshop on
Ionic Liquids - Seeds for New Engineering ApplicationsEUROTHERM Seminar 97
February 2-3, 2012, FCUL Campus, Lisbon, Portugal
On the occasion of the Commemoration of the Centenary of Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa (FCUL) and on the advent of several major modifications in energy utilization and recovery, the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry of FCUL in collaboration with the Universitat Rovira I Virgili, Tarragona, Spain, have decided to jointly promote a workshop on the potential applications of Ionic Liquids (ILs) and their mixtures with other solvents and nanomaterials in two very important areas:
- Absorption refrigeration and heat pumps
- New heat transfer fluids
It is the aim of the workshop to bring together researchers working on ILs, heat transfer fluids, and nanomaterials as well as company people producing and supplying ILs and to discuss on possible working fluids particularly ILs for heat transfer applications, their economical viability and technical challenges. Related industries will be invited to participate in the workshop for potential discussions and collaborations. The workshop will feature motivation and plenary talks from internationally recognized academic and industrial experts in the field followed by presentations of contributed papers and posters.
Workshop topics include:
- ILs as heat transfer fluids
- Application of ILs in absorption refrigeration and heat pumps
- Commercialized applications of ILs
- Nano and Ionano-fluids as advanced coolants
This workshop is part of the NARILAR - New Working Fluids based on Natural Refrigerants and Ionic Liquids for Absorption Refrigeration and was recognised as EUROTHERM Seminar 97.
Please disseminate this announcement to your colleagues who might also be interested in attending this workshop.

The series of EUROTHERM Seminars established by the Committee has become a popular forum for high-level scientific and technical interchange of ideas in a wide range of specialist topics. While the presentation and publication of papers at the Seminars are encouraged, the primary aim is to stimulate discussion and liaison between specialist groups.
The President of EUROTHERM in 2010-2014 is Prof. Anton A. van Steenhoven, Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands (E-mail: a.a.v.steenhoven@tue.nl) Information on future SEMINARS is available from the Secretary, Prof. Darina Murray, Professor Darina B. Murray, School of Engineering, Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland (E-mail: dmurray@tcd.ie).
