CARE-O-SENE initiative introduced during Chilean
President's visit to Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin
At the beginning of June, the President of Chile, Gabriel Boric Font, visited the Helmholtz Centre Berlin (HZB). He was accompanied by an official delegation of 50 members, including representatives from national authorities, parliamentarians, business leaders, scientists and researchers. Among the delegation were the Chilean Minister of Science and four other ministers from various sectors.
During the visit, discussions focused on the development of innovative catalytic materials crucial for achieving a climate-neutral industry. HZB is collaborating with Sasol on an international research project called CARE-O-SENE (Catalyst Research for Sustainable Kerosene). The project aims to develop new Fischer-Tropsch catalysts to optimise the production of sustainable kerosene on an industrial scale. The Helmholtz Centre Berlin (HZB) plays a significant role in this initiative.
Chile and Germany currently co-chair the Climate Club, an alliance of 38 countries working together to address climate change.
