Twenty Second International Symposium on Molten Salts and Ionic Liquids

Abstract

The Twenty Second International Symposium on Molten Salts and Ionic Liquids is part of the 238th International Meeting (PRiME 2020) of the Electrochemical Society held in Honolulu, HI, USA, October 4 Ð 9, 2020. The symposium will cover a wide range of topics of importance to the United States Army, including power and energy (e.g., battery and fuel cells), rare earth and nuclear chemistry (e.g. radioisotopes and nuclear reprocessing), separations (e.g., selective extractions and biphasic systems), extractive metallurgy (e.g., electrolytic deoxidation), electrodeposition (e.g. deposition of alloys, characterization of electroactive species), reactions (e.g. catalysis, synthesis, oligomerization, and polymerization), solute and solvent properties (e.g. structural investigations, melting behavior, and stability of molten salts), new molten salts and ionic liquids (e.g. liquid clathrates, binary and ternary melts, and task specific ionic liquids), and bio-materials and systems (e.g,, biological reactions, bio-catalysis, and bio-nanocomposites). Molten salts and ionic liquids offer the potential for unique solvent environments for biological reactions and biocatalysis. The high ionic strength and non-complexing nature of many of these systems provide unique opportunity for novel biological reactions.
