Talks and papers
Eighteen years of our work, in the slides we gave. Filed by area, with the original next to the 2026 edition.
Original is the file as it was presented, with a Namindo cover and closing page added. Nothing inside it is changed.
Updated edition is the same talk, redesigned and checked against 2026 facts and sources, so you can see what held and what moved.

Polymers and materials
Where every process meets its material
Fourteen world patents in polymer process technology, twelve of them with Oerlikon Barmag. These talks follow polymers from fibre lines to composites in aircraft, wind blades and buildings. Our work in this area

Renewable energy
Catching more sun, wind and geothermal
Power from the sun, the wind and the heat below the ground. These talks set each era's view of renewable energy and storage against the facts that followed. Our work in this area

Solar PV
More light on every panel
From thin-film PV plants for Asia with Oerlikon Solar in 2008 to bifacial solar farms today. Our work in this area
Also on this subject: Sustainable Materials and Energy 2022
Wind
Blades that bend, not break
Wind turbine blades are polymer composites. These talks cover how they are designed and made. Our work in this area

Biofuels
Fuel grown, not drilled
Ethanol, biodiesel, biogas and e-methanol plants, and the materials choices that decide whether they run for thirty years. Our work in this area
Sustainable aviation fuel and e-SAF
Jet fuel without the oil well
HEFA fuel from waste fats and oils, and e-SAF made from green hydrogen and captured CO₂ by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis or methanol-to-jet. One HEFA project taken from a comparison of six licensors to ready for a final investment decision. Our work in this area
Also on this subject: Materials for the biofuel transition: why stainless steels matter 2026
Ammonia, hydrogen and fertilisers
Molecules that carry energy and food
Ammonia feeds the world as urea and calcium ammonium nitrate (CAN) fertilisers, and it can carry hydrogen as a fuel. Our record includes a USD 850 million ammonia complex in Sulawesi, now running at 112% of rated capacity, and the green ammonia projects that follow it. Our work in this area
Also on this subject: Health, safety and environment protection using fibre optics 2018
Sensors and plant safety
Plants that feel a leak first
Fibre optics and field sensors that find a leak, a hot spot or a strain before people can, so the plant stays safe and the data stays honest.
Also on this subject: Remote condition monitoring of plant assets 2021
Design for sustainability
Twelve principles, one planet
The principles of green design, tested on buildings and homes, and the course notes that teach them. Our work in this area
Also on this subject: Sustainable Materials and Energy 2022
