Meeting scope and topics

The Chemical Process Industry emits quite a lot of environmentally hazardous material during its production processes, which should be minimized or separated. The first approach is to develop cleaner production methods or secondly to use suitable separation or disposal methods. Due to increasingly stringent environmental regulations more emphasis should be laid on the improvement of these methods.

Main meeting topics are:

• Wastewater treatment
• Air pollution abatement
• Waste minimization and disposal
• Waste to energy or chemicals
• Risk analysis and loss prevention
• Process intensification and sustainability in chemical engineering
• Methods of testing, validation and monitoring
• Simulation in environmental engineering
• Particle technology (and nanotechnology)
