Process Intensification for Sustainable Manufacturing
The WCCE-8 Symposium on PROCESS INTENSIFICATION in Montreal 2009 offers a unique opportunity to network between Industry and University to discuss the latest developments in intensification techniques, to exchange innovative ideas in sustainable processes and also to learn from developers and equipment suppliers. Application-oriented research papers, communications from industrialists sharing their experience, case studies highlighting industry perspectives will be most welcome.
Scope
This topical conference is dedicated to novel intensified equipment and processes for sustainable manufacturing. The proposed topics are :
Industrial technologies
- microstructured equipment (reactors, mixers, exchangers, separators)
- alternative energies (electric, magnetic, microwaves, plasmas, photons...)
- force fields (gravitational, mechanical, acoustic, ...)
- neoteric solvents (supercritical fluids, ionic liquids)
- multifunctional designs (membranes, catalysis)
Applications in Process Industries
- chemicals (bulk, fine/specialty, pharmaceuticals)
- bioprocessing, agri-food
- polymers, plastics, novel materials, metals
- energy, industrial gases, water treatment
- formulation, intensified product engineering
- distributed processing, on-demand manufacturing
Publication
This symposium will be included in the WCCE8 proceedings.
