Electrify-It

Project description

Creating novel electrochemistry specialists

The success of Europe’s Green Deal and green transition requires a tremendous amount of effort from all stakeholders. In the case of modern chemistry, it is also important to develop sustainable compounds, materials, and chemical processes. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the EI project will develop a multidisciplinary training programme where students will achieve deep knowledge of electrochemistry applied to organic synthesis along with critical networking and industrial skills. These skills will allow the students to excel in their field, forge strong networking bonds, innovate, and develop revolutionary new solutions.

Objective

The European Union has been challenged to contribute to the global aim of providing sustainable solutions to the current and future needs on synthetic compounds and materials in the coming years. The development of sustainable chemical processes is a cornerstone of modern chemistry, emerging as a critical global research focus. By optimizing the use of natural resources and reducing waste and environmental impact, sustainable chemistry addresses pressing societal needs and contributes valuable solutions. In this sense, electrochemistry has been reborn as a very powerful synthetic tool, which allows organic transformations to be carried out using simple electrons as the driving force of these transformations, and it is beginning to play a significant role in both academic and industrial settings. It is therefore necessary to establish strong networking among European research centers and industries focused on the application of electrochemistry in organic synthesis. The EI program aims to create a multidisciplinary training program in which, the students will acquire a deep knowledge of electrochemistry applied to organic synthesis, in addition to highly valued industrial skills, and the establishment of a strong networking in the area. This strong networking will promote the appearance of new research lines and the creation of a highly qualified research training program for PhD students, ultimately positioning Europe as a leader in a hot research field as electrochemistry.

Project’s keywords as indicated by the project coordinator. Not to be confused with the EuroSciVoc taxonomy (Fields of science)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
