Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS, Germany. He studied physics and received his Doctorate in the field of electrochemistry. In 1996 he accepted a position at Siemens AG working in the field of microelectronics amongst others at the DRAM Development Alliance in East Fishkill, New York. In 2000, he began to work for Bayer AG in Leverkusen changing subsequently to H.C. Starck GmbH, a Bayer subsidiary, where he was head of the <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">Electroceramics</a> and the New Business Development department. Furthermore, he was the managing director of InDEC B.V. working in the field of solid oxide fuel cells and finished his state doctorate at University of Düsseldorf. Since 2004, he has been director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS and has been holding the chair of Inorganic Nonmetallic Materials at TU Dresden. He has more than 40 patent families in materials science, microelectronics, and electronics and provided more than 100 publications. In 2012 he was awarded the ACerS Bridge Building Award for his contribution in the field of energy and environmental technology.</p> </p> <h5>Abstract:</h5> <p><p> <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">Advanced ceramic materials</a> offer enormous potential for innovations in the fields of efficient energy conversion and storage, propulsion systems, smart structures, sensor technology as well as environmental technology. The joint application of structural and functional <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">ceramic technology</a> allows for unique combination of electronic, ionic (electrochemical) and mechanical properties enabling the development of new, highly integrated systems in the above mentioned fields. However, due to the specific brittle failure mechanism of <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">ceramic materials</a> (Griffith behavior) the production of ceramic components requires new approaches for non destructive in-line testing. This is illustrated with specific examples for smart systems development for <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">Fuel Cell</a>, batteries and ceramic membranes. As a first example, high temperature fuel cell systems development for both mobile and stationary applications are presented. In the power range from 1 W to several 10 kW we use SOFC (solid oxide fuel cell) technology, for the high power range up to several MW we prefer MCFC (molten carbonate fuel cell) technology. Both fuel cell types use conventional hydrocarbon fuels and are currently being commercialized. These fuel cells allow for ultra high efficient power generation. In the combined heat and power (CHP) mode, efficiencies above 95% can be reached. Since the load following capability of fuel cells is limited, we also develop new ceramic based storage systems. These storage systems also can be used along with renewable power generation technologies (PV, wind) to solve the problem of base load feed in. Examples for development of Li-Ion batteries as well as high temperature NaNiCl batteries are presented. As an example for the potential of ceramic materials in the field of environmental technology, ceramic membranes are discussed. Such membranes can be used for micro-, ultra- or nano- filtration of liquids and gases. For this, a control and reduction of pore sizes below the 1 nm range is required.</p> </p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <div class="well well-sm col-md-12 content-box-dotted"> <div class="content-box tracks" style="clear:both"> <ul class="list-group show"> <li class="list-group-item">Track: 5 Designing and Engineering of Ceramic Composites; Track: 6 Ceramics and Systems for Energy and Environment; Track: 7 Surface Engineering and Ceramic Coating; Track: 8 Innovative Processing and Synthesis</li> </ul> </div> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4>Session Introduction</h4> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/akio-nakamura-japan-atomic-energy-agency-japan" >Akio Nakamura</a></h4> <p>Japan Atomic Energy Agency, Japan</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/n-a" >\</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Akio-Nakamura-28352.png" alt="Speaker" title="Akio Nakamura" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p><p> Akio Nakamura is a PhD from University of Tokyo (1975). He is a Senior Researcher at ASRC/ JAEA, studying solid state electrochemistry of fluorite oxides.

He is the book editor for books like “New research trends of fluorite-based oxide materials; from basic chemistry and materials science to engineering applications” from Nova Science Publishers (NY) published in 2015, and a recipient of Jubilee Gold Medal Award for Excellent Work in Materials Chemistry at the ICFM-2015 convened by Indian Association of Solid State Chemists and Allied Scientists at Nagpur, India, 2015.</p> </p> <h5>Abstract:</h5> <p><p> This presentation describes the recently proposed a new comprehensive defect-crystal-chemistry approach as a possible unified generalized Vegard-Law (VL) description of non-Vegardianity and non-random defect structure of entitled so-called defect-fluorite oxides as inherently coupled two sides of distortion-dilation in macroscopic lattice parameter and microscopic ionic radius level, respectively. It provides a new direct link to their controversial defect structure and its dependent key basic as well as engineering properties such as oxide-ion conductivity (σ(ion)) and defect thermodynamic behavior, etc. This presentation is a condensed review of the technology; and scientifically emphasized description of the value of Mössbauer, NMR and EXAFS, etc., microscopic and spectroscopic local structure data in combination with macroscopic XRD lattice parameter/crystal structure data in both formulating and substantiating the model, and in practical engineering aspect, in view of their well-known application as solid electrolytes in SOFC (solid oxide fuel cell) technology. I appeal its near quantitative ability to predict and describe their key characteristic feature of ionic conductivity maximum (σ(ion)(max)) behavior in low dopant (Ln3+) content range.</p> </p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/alexander-michaelis-fraunhofer-institute-of-ceramic-technologies-and-systems-germany" >Alexander Michaelis</a></h4> <p>Fraunhofer Institute of Ceramic Technologies and Systems, Germany</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/advanced-ceramics-for-energy-systems" >Advanced ceramics for energy systems</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Alexander-Michaelis-28326.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Alexander Michaelis" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p><p> Alexander Michaelis is the Director of Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS, Germany.

The SEM image that attracted author’s attention was a cavity observed in the fracture surface of a single crystal ofUO2 that washeat-treated in helium at 90 MPa, followed by annealing at 1573 K for 1 h. It was clear that the cavity was a negative crystal that was formed by the precipitation of helium during heat treatment after <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">Hot Isostatic Pressing</a> (HIP) injection. In a series of experiments, it was noticed that the shape of the negative crystal changes depending on the heat-treatment history. In general, it is difficult to control arbitrarily the shapes of these polyhedral negative crystals embedded in a solid medium; however, the shape can easily be controlled using the helium injection method. Author’s research team named the shape controlled negative crystal as image crystal. At this time, it was discovered that three types of image crystals formed in UO2. Further research was conducted on the formation of image crystals in CeO2. However, because of manufacturing difficulties, single-crystal CeO2 is not available. Consequently, it wsa used a CeO2 <a href="http://ceramics.conferenceseries.com/">thin film</a> formed by epitaxial growth. Helium was injected as 130-keV He4+ ions from a 400-keV ion implanter. The helium-ion-doped film was heat treated at 1673 K for 2h. The sample was cut into rectangular slices fortransmission electron microscopy.Weconfirmed that nanosized image crystalshad been formed in the matrix.</p> </p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/raed-abu-reziq-the-hebrew-university-of-jerusalem-israel" >Raed Abu-Reziq</a></h4> <p>The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/n-a-151" >\</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Raed-Abu-Reziq-28355.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Raed Abu-Reziq" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p>Raed Abu-Reziq completed his Doctorate at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in catalysis and sol-gel chemistry.

One known encapsulation process is based on silica microcapsules prepared by the sol-gel method. Sol-gel microcapsules are known to be inert, biocompatible and flexible; therefore they are commonly used in pharmaceutics and cosmetics. Many of these ingredients are water- sensitive, thus a new method for preparing a silica microcapsules is required. In our research, we focus on preparing a silica microcapsules by non-aqueous and non-hydrolytic sol-gel chemistry. To achieve that, non-aqueous emulsions are prepared using polar and non-polar organic solvent and a silane precursors that can polymerize and produce silica at the interface of the emulsion, without a hydrolysis step. The polar solvent that was chosen is ionic liquids and the silica was formed by the reaction of tetrachlorosilane with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) or benzyl alcohol. Ionic liquids are thermally and chemically stable, not volatility and they are liquids over a wide range of temperatures and pressures. These properties make them good solvent for a broad spectrum of materials and catalytic reactions. The preparation of the silica microcapsules by non-aqueous sol-gel method, their characterization and applications will be presented.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/muzafar-a-kanjwal-technical-university-of-denmark-denmark" >Muzafar A Kanjwal</a></h4> <p>Technical University of Denmark, Denmark</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/electrospun-nio-zno-and-composite-nio-zno-nanofibers-photocatalytic-degradation-of-dairy-effluent" >Electrospun NiO, ZnO and composite NiO-ZnO nanofibers: Photocatalytic degradation of dairy effluent</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Muzafar-A-Kanjwal-29936.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Muzafar A Kanjwal" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p>Muzafar A Kanjwal has completed his PhD from Chonbuk National University, South Korea.

Photocatalytic degradation of DE and organic dye methylene blue (MB) was studied using zinc oxide nanofibers (ZnO NFs), nickel oxide nanofibers (NiO NFs) and composite zinc oxide-nickel oxide nanofibers (ZnO-NiO NFs). These nano-membranes were characterized with SEM, TEM, XRD and UV studies. The pristine nanofiber membranes were smooth and continuous, with an average diameter of about 400 nm, and held their nanofibrous morphology even after calcination at 600 ËšC for more than 3 hours of photocatalytic degradation of DE and MB dye. The ZnO NFs and NiO NFs were effective materials for degradation of DE and MB dye. NiO NFs and ZnO NFs showed a maximum degradation of 70% and 75% in DE and 50% and 60% in MB dye, respectively, after 3 hours. The significant enhancement of degradation in the composite ZnO-NiO NFs is attributed to the photoactivity of material under visible light irradiation. The composite ZnO-NiO NFs eliminated 40% of DE and 65% of MB dye, respectively, after 1 hour and maximum degradation of 80% DE after 3 hours and 100% MB dye after 90, min respectively. Overall, this study shows that the nanofibersâ€™ morphology strongly enhances the surface activity of the ZnO-NiO photocatalyst when utilized to degrade DE and MB dye at room temperature. </p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/ram-gupta-pittsburg-state-university-usa" >Ram Gupta</a></h4> <p>Pittsburg State University, USA</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/nano-ceramics-for-energy-storage-applications" >Nano-ceramics for energy storage applications</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Ram-Gupta-28311.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Ram Gupta" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p>Ram Gupta joined Pittsburg State University as an Assistant Professor in 2013.

Supercapacitors possess high power density in compare to batteries and are able to solve the increasing demand for energy in small consumer products, electrical vehicles and devices where quick power delivery is highly desired. We have used several facile methods to synthesized nanostructured ceramics such as NiCo2O4, Fe3O3 and CoMoO4. The electrochemical properties of these metal oxides were studied in details. It was observed that the charge-storage capacity depends on their morphology and electrolytes used. We have fabricated flexible supercapacitor device by using these metal oxides. The device showed no degradation in the capacitive properties on bending confirming their flexible nature. We have also studied the effect of temperature on the charge storage capacity of the devices for high temperature applications. The specific capacitance of the device significantly increased when the operational temperature of the device was elevatedfrom10 to 70oC. Hence, this work provides facile methods to synthesize morphologies controlled metal oxides for applications in next generation flexible energy storage devices which could drive more efficiently at higher temperature.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/ajay-kumar-mishra-university-of-south-africa-south-africa" >Ajay Kumar Mishra</a></h4> <p>University of South Africa, South Africa</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/silicon-carbide-a-versatile-nanomaterial-191" >Silicon Carbide: A versatile nanomaterial</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Ajay-Kumar-Mishra-29080.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Ajay Kumar Mishra" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p>Ajay Kumar Mishra is currently working as Associate Professor at the Department of Applied Chemistry, University of Johannesburg, South Africa.

These processes can be classified as â€œoxide nanostructures by materials designâ€. One process creates nanofiber arrays of single crystal TiO2 by gas phase reaction in a H2/N2 environment. As oxygen from TiO2 is taken out as H2O (g), Ti diffuses from the surface to the bulk resulting in fibers oriented along the <001> direction. Work on single crystal TiO2 shows that on Au-catalyzed (001) surface, oriented nano-fibers can be grown with <001> and <110> alignments using H2/N2 heat treatment. The same gas heat treatment was also used to grow nanofibers on polycrystalline SnO2 in regions of the sample coated with gold, showing directional growth on grains with crystal facets. We have also developed a process to create nanofibers of TiO2 on Ti metal and Ti alloys via oxidation under a limited supply of oxygen (~10s of ppm). Lately, we have succeeded in converting the 1-D TiO2 nano-fiber grown by thermal oxidation to nano-dendritic titanates by a hydrothermal treatment. The conversion of TiO2 to barium (and other) titanates is a path to synthesizing materials in a different class of functionality because of their piezoelectric and ferroelectric responses. We developed yet another interesting nano-structure (nanoislands and nanobars) during thermal annealing of an oxide (GDC) on top of another oxide (YSZ) substrate that self-assembles along the softest elastic direction of the substrate. What is common about these structures is that they are fabricated without the use of lithographic techniques and involves simple processes such as gas-phase reactions and stress-driven process. These nano-structures can be used as platforms for chemical sensing, photo catalysis, electro emission and biomedical applications. Pre-liminary results of some of these applications are presented.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/allu-amarnath-reddy-university-of-aveiro-portugal" >Allu Amarnath Reddy</a></h4> <p>University of Aveiro, Portugal</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/development-of-bi-layered-glass-ceramic-sealant-for-solid-oxide-fuel-cells-sofcs" >Development of bi-layered glass-ceramic sealant for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs)</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Allu-Amarnath-Reddy-28353.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Allu Amarnath Reddy" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p>Allu Amarnath Reddy has completed his PhD at the age of 29 years from University of Aveiro, Portugal.

His research focuses on the development of glass and glass-ceramic based photonic and sealant materials.</p> <h5>Abstract:</h5> <p>Glass and glass-ceramic (GC), in particular alkaline-earth alumino silicate based glasses and GCs, are becoming the most common sealing materials for gas-tight sealing applications in SOFCs. Besides the development of new glass-based materials, new additional concepts are required to overcome the challenges being faced by the currently existing sealant technology.In this pursuit, various glasses and GCs in the field of diopside crystalline materials have been synthesized and characterized by a wide array of techniques. All the glasses were prepared by melt-quenching technique while GCs were produced by sintering of glass powder compacts at the temperature ranges from 800ï€900 ÂºC for 1ï€1000 h. Furthermore, the influence of various ionic substitutions, especially SrO for CaO, and Ln2O3 (Ln=La, Nd, Gd, and Yb), for MgO + SiO2 in Al-containing diopside on the structure, sintering and crystallization behaviour of glasses and properties of resultant GCs has been investigated, in relevance with final application as sealants in SOFC. From the results obtained in the study of diopside-based glasses, a bi-layered concept of GC sealant is proposed to overcome the challenges being faced by SOFCs.Bi-layer GC contains a rigid and a self-healing (SH)GC layer. The concept behind the Bi-layer GC is : (i) a small gradient in the CTE will lead to lower thermal expansion mismatch between the sealing layers and the other SOFC components, thus provide enhanced mechanical reliability for the stack; (ii) cracks produced due to minor thermal stresses in the rigid GC layer can be healed by the SH-GC due to its sufficient amorphous content. Obtained experimental results from chemical, thermal, mechanical and electrical studies confirm the good suitability of the investigated bi-layered sealant system for SOFC applications.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section> <div class="col-md-12"> <div class="affiliation bs-callout col-md-12"> <h4><a style="color:#63a7f4;" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/speaker/2015/erfan-zalnezhad-hanyang-university-south-korea" >Erfan Zalnezhad</a></h4> <p>Hanyang University, South Korea</p> <h6>Title: <a style="color:#63a7f4" href="https://ceramics.insightconferences.com/abstract/2015/fretting-fatigue-life-evaluation-of-zr-zro2-nanotubes-coating-on-ti-6al-4v-for-biomedical-application" >Fretting fatigue life evaluation of Zr/ZrO2 nanotubes coating on Ti-6Al-4V for biomedical application</a> </h6> </div> </div> <div class="speaker-bio-abs"> <div class="bio-main"> <img src="https://d2cax41o7ahm5l.cloudfront.net/cs/speaker-photo/Ceramics-2015-Erfan-Zalnezhad-28354.jpg" alt="Speaker" title="Erfan Zalnezhad" class="img-responsive thumbnail pull-left"> <div class="bio"> <h5>Biography:</h5> <p>Erfan Zalnezhad has completed his PhD at the age of 34 years from University Malaya.

Consequently, nanotubes were produced via Zr anodization in an NH4F electrolyte solution (95 glycerol: 5 water) at different times and at a constant potential of 60 V (second layer). The fretting fatigue behavior of anodized samples annealed at 400â„ƒ and 800â„ƒ was investigated.

He has been working on â€˜Solid electrolytes and nanocomposites based on doped and co-doped ceria for intermediate and low temperature solid oxide fuel cellsâ€™. The objective of this research is to develop low cost solid electrolytes for the above purpose.</p> <h5>Abstract:</h5> <p>Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are clean source of energy generation. Solid electrolyte constitutes an important component of the SOFCs. YSZ has been in use for this purpose. But it exhibits adequate oxygen ions conductivity at high temperature viz 900-1000Â°C. This high temperature puts lot of constraints on the use of materials in the construction of the cell and cell stacks. For the last few years, rare earth doped ceria has received a great deal of attention due to enhanced ionic conductivity in the intermediate temperature range 500-700Â°C. Samarium doped ceria SDC and gadolinium doped ceria (GDC) have been reported to have high ionic conductivity among trivalent lanthanides. But Sm and Gd are very costly. Hence, there is an increasing interest to identify and develop new ceria based oxides using cost-effective dopants for technological applications. A new co-doping approach has been introduced to further increase the conductivity in the intermediate temperature range and to reduce the cost also. An improvement in the conductivity has been found by co-doping. Recently, the research has been going on the ceria/salt based nanocomposite solid electrolyte to further increase the ionic conductivity at low temperature viz. 300-600Â°C. The composites, composed of two phases one is doped ceria crystalline phase and other is amorphous salt (carbonate, chloride, hydrate or sulphate), show conductivity in the range 0.01-1S-cmâˆ’1 at 400â€“600Â°C and suppress the electronic conductivity effectively. The present overview summarizes the investigations on the ionic conductivity of singly and co-doped ceria and nanocomposites based on ceria/carbonate dual phase.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section>
