This session will include multiple viewpoints from start-ups focused on designing chemicals/fuels from renewable materials to large players incorporating sustainability throughout traditional process development to improve carbon footprint and overall process economics.
We are bringing back a popular feature of past PDS: The Interactive Panel Session. All attendees bring their experience to this conference and all will be listening to valuable information from the papers in the other sessions. The interactive session is the attendees’ chance to discuss some of the topics and share some of their experiences in a way that can benefit many other attendees.
This session will focus on several of these softer skills with approaches to improve one’s communication, teamwork, business acumen and leadership being discussed.
This session will highlight the use of computational codes to more efficiently address process development challenges or focus on the fundamental problems within a chemical process.
This year’s program will feature a live ChemEsports competition on optimization and safety, open to academia and industry, using a simulated distillation column provided by Simulation Solutions Inc.
This lecture was jointly established, in 2008, in memory of James Y. Oldshue by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and the Interamerican Confederation of Chemical Engineering (CIIQ/IACChE).
This year's John M. Prausnitz AIChE Institute Lecturer is Karen K. Gleason, Alexander and I. Michael Kasser Professor of Chemical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
