Join the third edition of this industrial partnership
The EleTher Joint Industrial Project (JIP), now in its third edition, presents a unique opportunity for industrial partners to collaborate with leading experts in electrolyte thermodynamics.
Addressing critical challenges in the process or energy industry, this initiative aims at proposing best practices, stimulating software vendors and fostering academic research.
A number of simple yet representative case studies will be investigated to identify key challenges that may be encountered in industrial practice.
By joining EleTher 3, industrial partners gain access to cutting-edge research and a network of experts dedicated to solving industry-relevant problems.

Technical Challenges

  • Thermodynamic models must be able to describe with accuracy and predictive power both short and long range interactions 
     
  • The compounds are often very reactive implying the consideration of both chemical and physical equilibrium simultaneously 
     
  • Many phases can co-exist, implying that the algorithm must have a strong stability analysis
