SUMMARY:HILT CRC Public Webinar: Decarbonising alumina – AlumiNEXT™ and future pathways
DESCRIPTION:Join HILT CRC for a webinar on alumina decarbonisation\, featuring an update on RP1.013 Alumina refineries’ next-generation transition (AlumiNEXT™) Project and a broader discussion of the technologies\, integration challenges and industry priorities shaping the transition to low-carbon alumina.\nAlumiNEXT™ is focused on two major emissions-reduction pathways for alumina refining: achieving low- or zero-emissions steam generation and recovery within the Bayer Process\, and decarbonising calcination through hydrogen\, electrification and other low-carbon heat options. \nA/Prof. Woei Saw (Adelaide University)\, AlumiNEXT™ research leader\, will present a project update\, including recent progress across reactor design\, modelling\, steam recovery\, calcination studies and industry-led integration priorities. Prof. Gus Nathan (Adelaide University and HILT CRC Research Director) will provide a technical perspective on the current status and future of alumina decarbonisation\, considering how emerging technologies can be combined into practical refinery transition pathways. \nFrom an industry perspective\, Emilio Pai (Emirates Global Aluminium) will discuss EGA’s activities and priorities as a producer and user of alumina\, and Marghanita Johnson (CEO\, Australian Aluminium Council) will provide a broader view of the sector’s decarbonisation challenges and opportunities. \nThe session will explore what is technically promising\, what still needs to be de-risked\, and how industry\, researchers and technology providers can work together to bridge the gap to low-carbon alumina processing.

SUMMARY:Building for the future: Designing today's buildings for tomorrow's climate
DESCRIPTION:Australia’s buildings are designed and operated based on weather assumptions from the past\, but what happens when those assumptions no longer hold? The NESP Climate Systems Hub Building for the Future project is tackling this challenge head-on\, developing new future climate files that allow building simulation tools to model how structures will perform under the likely conditions of coming decades\, including under extreme conditions such as heatwaves. This will help us to understand the implications of our future climate for building thermal comfort\, energy use and peak demand. It represents a significant shift for the Australian building simulation industry\, paving the way for more climate-resilient\, efficient and future-ready design. \nThis panel discussion bringing together researchers and practitioners who have been directly involved in co-designing\, co-developing and testing these prototype files.\nYou’ll hear about the motivations underlying the project\, some of the challenges of co-design\, and the learnings from this work\, both for the scientists and for the practitioners. It’s a rare opportunity to hear how climate science is being translated into practical tools for building designers\, building simulation modellers\, assessors and policy-makers. \nThis work is complex problem solving: a chance to rethink how we plan for a changing climate and ensure Australia’s buildings are fit for the future.
