Adelbert Goede

Adelbert Goede conducted and first published the DIFFER CO₂ plasma dissociation work in 2012. Trained as plasma physicist at the research Institute AMOLF Amsterdam with a PhD on “Ion beam-plasma interaction and the production of a quiescent plasma”, he joined the UKAEA Culham Laboratories in 1975 and worked at the world leading EU fusion project JET from 1979 to 1988 on the development, specification, procurement, testing, commissioning and operation of the Neutral Beam Injector. Returning to the Netherlands in 1988 he set up and lead the Earth Observation Division of the Space Research Organisation Netherlands, acting as Co-PI of the SCIAMACHY spectrometer launched in 2002 on ESA ENVISAT, producing an invaluable 10 year global dataset of atmospheric CO₂ and other GHGs. He returned to his old field of Fusion research in 2006 to work on the solution rather than the problem of climate change. He coordinates the EU H2020 KEROGREEN project on Sustainable Aviation Fuel, the EERA Chemical Energy Storage program, is Advisor to Director DIFFER and the German Kopernikus program P2X. He is fellow of the European Physical Society. He is co-proposer of the currently running EU ORACLE project on ammonia synthesis also based on plasma technology.
