Dr. Alessandra Quadrelli presents the Green Chemistry Lecture
11:30 AM – 12:30 PM
The Nitrogen cycle, and ammonia production specifically offer a privileged entry point to discuss the role of catalysis, current scenarios for the energy transition and the importance of planetary boundaries framework to shape a Sustainable Planet and Society [1].
The discussion of the nitrogen cycle from this point of view will offer a perspective on catalysis scenarios adapted to the energy transition and more largely to the Anthropocene epoch, leading to the introduction of the “situated green chemistries” framework [2] which attempts to combine chemistry, systems analysis and social sciences.
