682 Interfacial Phenomena in Energy Systems

Description:
This session is focused on experimental and modeling work related to energy systems where interfacial phenomena play a determining role. Papers related to fossil energy, nuclear energy, biofuels, and alternative energy are welcome. Examples include energy storage in electrochemical capacitors or batteries, gas/oil processes, nuclear fuel processing and separations, solar energy conversion devices, and biofuel processes. Papers addressing water issues related to energy production are also welcome.
