Long Night of the Sciences at HZB

5^th June 2021, online

The tense situation unfortunately leaves no other option: This year, too, we have to cancel the Long Night of the Sciences in Presence.

For this very reason, we are all the more pleased to be able to offer you a few of our program items online.

You can find the german Program here.

Program

Virtual Guided tour: Hoovering with sulfur batteries (in english)

18:30, duration 30 min. Sometimes batteries need to be very lightweight, as for drones. The combination of lithium with sulfur weighs little and is even ecologically sustainable. We show the full process from electrode manufacturing to full cell assembly.

Virtual Guided Tour: Electrifying carbon (in english)

19:30, Duration 30 min. Carbon dioxide gas is produced during combustion and causes the greenhouse effect in the atmosphere and thus the climate crisis. But carbon dioxide could also be a raw material from which fuels and chemicals can be produced again. Is that even possible? Find out here how we recycle carbon dioxide into valuable products using electrical energy.
