Multiscale Catalytic Energy Conversion (MCEC) is a new consortium bringing together chemists, physicists and engineers from Eindhoven University of Technology, University of Twente, and Utrecht University, working together on sustainable and innovative solutions in the field of energy. The main goal of MCEC is to develop highly efficient chemical processes for sustainable energy production as well as new functional materials by using fossil, biomass and solar resources. Catalysis plays a central role in the research approach.
This long-term research programme (so called NWO Gravitation Programme) is directly funded by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science (OCW).
