Decarbochim

Towards a more sustainable chemistry industry

Involved in an ambitious plan to reduce its emissions  (-65% of CO2 since 1990), the chemistry industry absolutely needs to hire and support new skills trained to face these stakes.

To offer an innovative and adapted training program, a consortium gathering France Chimie, the GayLussac federation (20 engineering schools specialising in Chemistry and process engineering) and the ADIUT (connected to 19 departments of IUT in chemistry and chemical engineering, process engineering) launches the Decarbochim project.

Train skills for a sustainable chemistry

This project has a double ambition for skills and jobs of the future:

  • Offer training programmes based on referential of shared skills for the decarbonation of chemistry industry on the entirety of the national territory;
  • Spread decarbonation culture amongst chemistry students, and more widely to all employees.

Through this project, The University of Caen Normandy contributes to spread decarbonation culture to chemistry students, especially by creating specialised courses in the BUT GCGP, within the campuses, and more widely to all employees.
