Shell is one of the world’s largest energy companies. They are an oil and gas supermajor and operate all over the world. The company is active in every area of the oil and gas industry and also has activities in renewable energy, such as biofuels, wind, and hydrogen.

During the lunch lecture, they will tell something about the Energy and Chemicals Park Rotterdam, previously known as Shell Pernis Raffinaderij, which is Europe’s largest refinery. It currently emits roughly 4Mton of CO2 per year and aims to be net-zero by 2050.

To achieve this, many actions will need to be taken. During this lunch and learn they will tell you about some of the steps we are currently taking to achieve net-zero CO2. They will touch upon biofuels, carbon capture and storage, and hydrogen. Next to that, they will tell you about their role as an applied physics alumnus.

At this lunch lecture, free lunch will be provided. Subscriptions for free lunch are open until Tuesday, December 6th.

Blauwe zaal (Auditorium)

When looking at the history of physics, a lot of things that are now common in our daily life were once thought to be impossible. The physics symposium of this year will touch upon a few of these possible/impossible topics in the field of quantum sensing, biophysics, particle physics and artificial power plants. The symposium will take place on January 18 and you will have the possibility to join the morning program (incl. lunch), the afternoon program or the entire day (incl. lunch)! The day will be closed with a Borrel in de ’Salon’ for all people that joined the symposium.
