Sustainability in Chemical Engineering

The symposium focused on sustainable chemical technologies and addressed challenges that arise for industry from the drive towards sustainable development (SD). The objective of this symposium is to present SD-oriented researches and innovations within chemical engineering. The symposium will aim to provide a stimulus for knowledge exchange and discussion that focuses on the issues addressed to industrial application of SD principles in order to reach solutions for a better future.
