Hiden Analytical will be attending the University of Surrey‘s “Electrochemistry for a Sustainable Future” Workshop taking place 15-16 June in Surrey, UK. Representing us will be Steven Fiddy, who will be on-site to showcase how Hiden’s instrumentation supports electrochemical research.
Electrochemistry for a Sustainable Future is a two-day international workshop designed to connect a multidisciplinary community spanning chemistry, biology, engineering, and materials science around sustainability-driven electrochemical research. The programme is structured around four strategic streams: water treatment and sensing, synthesis and catalysis, energy conversion, and energy storage, to surface shared methods and facilities, catalyse cross-disciplinary collaborations, and accelerate electrochemical solutions for challenges such as clean energy, water purification, sustainable chemical production, and advanced environmental/health sensing.
What to Expect?
- Four strategic technical streams: Water treatment & sensing; synthesis & catalysis; energy conversion; energy storage, structured to connect methods and measurement needs across application domains.
- Highly interdisciplinary audience: Researchers spanning chemistry, biology, engineering, and materials science, enabling cross-fertilisation between materials, interfaces, devices, and systems-level sustainability challenges.
- Collaboration-driven format: Designed to surface shared techniques and facilities and accelerate new partnerships—ideal for aligning measurement workflows with emerging electrochemical questions.
- Sustainability-led discussion themes: Clean energy and storage, electrochemical synthesis, and water-related electrochemistry (treatment/monitoring), with emphasis on actionable research directions.
Hiden Analytical at “Electrochemistry for a Sustainable Future” Workshop
- Operando gas analytics for electrochemical systems: Showcasing how the HPR-40 DEMS enables in situ, mass-resolved tracking of gaseous/volatile reactants, intermediates, and products with tight synchronisation to electrochemical signals—supporting mechanistic insight into selectivity, efficiency, and degradation.
- Dissolved-species insight in electrolytes and aqueous media: Highlighting the HPR-40 MIMS for fast, quantitative dissolved and evolved gas measurements via membrane-inlet sampling—useful for correlating electrochemical performance with real-time speciation in liquid matrices.
- Field and on-site measurement concepts: Discussing where the pQA Portable Quadrupole Analyser supports portable, quantitative dissolved-gas workflows with interchangeable inlets (including MIMS options)—relevant to water-treatment/sensing themes and applied electrochemistry outside the lab.
- Broader gas-analysis capability for sustainable process R&D: Bringing the QGA 2.0 into the conversation for real-time multi-species gas/vapour analysis (trace-to-percent range), supporting test-stand diagnostics, purge/off-gas monitoring, and method development around electrochemical and catalytic processes.
- Applications-first discussions and integration know-how: Inviting researchers to bring their specific measurement challenge (transient gas bursts, low-level by-products, background/interference, synchronisation) so Hiden can map it to practical cell/sampling integration and data interpretation—grounded in established DEMS/MIMS workflows and instrumentation.
