We facilitate access to research and disseminate information worldwide.Our mission is to advance applied combustion research and promote cooperation and information transfer throughout the international combustion and energy arena.

IFRF

Join us to learn about the technologies and processes that enable the production, utilisation and application of low/zero carbon hydrogen

Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC)

<p>The International Flame Research Foundation will hold its first hydrogen short course on 29th April - 3rd May 2024. Based in Sheffield, UK, the course will cover both theoretical and practical elements.</p><p>The event will take place at both the Advanced Manufacturing Park (AMP) Technology Centre and the University of Sheffield Translational Energy Research Centre (TERC).</p><p>Places on this course are limited to 30, so please book now if you are interested.</p><h3><br></h3><h3>Course overview</h3><p>In this course, you will learn about the technologies and processes that enable the production, utilisation and application of low/zero carbon hydrogen. We will explore the advantages and challenges of using low/zero carbon hydrogen and blend for various applications.</p><p>We are in the process of securing a CPD (continued professional development) certification for this course.</p><p><br></p><h3>Who should attend?</h3><p>This course is designed for professionals from various backgrounds who want to learn about hydrogen production, utilisation and application,health and safety challenges and hydrogen foresight. You will benefit from this course if you are:<br></p><ul><li>A process engineer, chemist, or fuel specialist who wants to learn more about hydrogen production, application, and utilisation.</li><li>A regional developer who needs a technical overview of hydrogen.</li><li>An energy and environmental manager who is considering using hydrogen.</li><li>A process heat system designer who is exploring hydrogen as a heat source.</li><li>A business development professional who wants to explore new opportunities and markets in the energy sector.</li></ul><p><br></p><h3>Course benefits</h3><h4><strong><strong>Organisational impact:</strong></strong></h4><p>This short course is designed to help the organisation enhance its capabilities in the hydrogen related energy business. Participants will learn about the key factors that contribute to the production and use of hydrogen. They will also explore how hydrogen can create positive impacts on CO2 emission and fuel supply security. Finally, you will develop the skills and mindset to address the challenges and opportunities in this dynamic and complex industry.</p><p><br></p><h4><strong><strong>What you will learn:</strong></strong></h4><p>This training course will help you to gain a comprehensive knowledge of hydrogen as a clean and sustainable energy source. You will learn how hydrogen is currently produced mainly from fossil fuels, such as natural gas, and next-generation blue and green hydrogen production pathways. You will also explore the challenges and opportunities associated with low/zero carbon hydrogen production. You will acquire the skills to design solutions that can overcome the technical barriers of hydrogen utilisation and combustion. Finally, you will also recognise how hydrogen can contribute to a secure, resilient, and decarbonised energy system.</p><p><br></p><h3>Key information:</h3><p>The course will also include one evening dinner event, hosted with a keynote speaker.</p><p>The course will be delivered by experts from industry, government, funding bodies, the researchers at the University of Sheffield TERC and hosts from the IFRF.</p><p><br></p><h3>Tickets</h3><p>For this course, you will be able to purchase one of three ticket types, allowing you to experience certain parts of the course or all of it:<br></p><ul><li><strong><strong>Two-day theoretical pass (days 1 and 2)</strong></strong> - This gives you access to the theoretical days ONLY, which will discuss hydrogen health and safety, economics, policy, production, utilisation and industrial applications.</li><li><strong><strong>Three-day practical pass</strong></strong> <strong><strong>(days 3, 4 and 5)</strong></strong> - This gives you access to the practical days ONLY, which will include activities on hydrogen combustion, hydrogen flame and heat transfer, modelling and process simulation. It also includes information on regulations, best practice and standards.</li><li><strong><strong>Full week pass (days 1-5) - </strong></strong>Includes all of the above</li></ul><p>IFRF members will receive a 10% discount on tickets. Please select the 'IFRF member' version of the ticket at checkout.</p><p>If your chosen ticket type is no longer available, please email administration@ifrf.net to be added to the waiting list.</p><p><br></p><h3>Agenda</h3><p>Please see the agenda below for more information about activity on each day.
