11 - 16 July 2004

Carbon 2004, an International Conference on Carbon, to be held at Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, USA. This American Carbon Society conference will cover the entire spectrum of carbon materials, their applications, and characterization. You are invited to visit the conference website at www.carbon2004.org for details. Preliminary due dates: short abstracts, 1 December 2003; extended abstracts, 15 March 2004. Conference Chair, J. M. Calo (Joseph_Calo@brown.edu); Technical Program Chair, Robert Hurt (Robert_Hurt@brown.edu); Sponsors and Exhibitors Chair, Eric Suuberg ( Eric_Suuberg@brown.edu). The conference will be preceded by a "Colloquium on Carbon Nanoforms" - a one-day workshop with limited attendance on Sunday, 11 July, featuring invited speakers, with ample time for discussion of new developments in this rapidly evolving field.

6 - 8 September 2004

5th European Conference on Coal Research and its Applications, to be held at the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, Scotland. The purpose of this conference is to bring together researchers in universities with participants from industry who also carry out research or who are interested in the application of this research. Papers are invited which describe applications in coal utilisation and preparation with particular reference to the following areas: combustion (in particular, conventional and advanced power generation, coal quality impacts and the challenges facing coal-fired generation today); emissions issues (including 2008 NOx reduction legislation, CO2 mitigation,, trace elements, hydrocarbons, gaseous pollutant and fine particulates); co-processing of coal particularly with biomass and wastes; carbonisation and other metallurgical uses; other coal conversion processes and coal preparation and handling.
