The presentation files of Plenary Sessions have been opened below.
Kyoto University Global Center of Excellence (GCOE) of Energy Science is
tackling the two themes for realizing CO2 zero emission in the 21st
century.
The Second International Symposium of Kyoto University GCOE of Energy Science, “ZERO-CARBON ENERGY Kyoto 2010” was held on August 19-20 at Kyoto University Obaku Plaza and brought together 182 participants in total.
On 19th August, the chairman, Prof. Satoshi Konishi (IAE, Kyoto University) declared the symposium open. At first, Prof. Kiyoshi Yoshikawa (Executive Vice President of Kyoto University) gave an opening address, Followed this, Dr. Yoshikazu Nishikawa (Emeritus Prof. of Kyoto University), and Prof. Mohamed A. Abdou (Distinguished Professor at UCLA) gave us opening remarks. Prof. Takeshi Yao (G-COE leader) introduced the G-COE activities. After that, 5 distinguished speakers from each group made a plenary lecturer, and then 80 posters were presented by G-COE Unit students as well as international participants.
At the end of reception party, several presentation awards were provided to those excellent students.
