9th International Combustion Institute Winter School
The 9th International Combustion Institute Winter School promoted by Rede Nacional de Combustão (9th RNC-CI-WS) aims at providing intensive educational experience from experts in the topics of combustion chemical kinetics and multi-physics phenomena, including catalytic combustion and plasma assisted combustion, to the future leaders in the combustion and energy fields.
The program format is constructed to allow a clear connection from fundamental content to real application demands, by including fundamental courses, lectures on advanced topics, poster sections as well as academy and industry interaction, based on technical visits and a permanent exhibition of companies in the areas of processes, products, and services.
