SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM

CONGRESS STRUCTURE

The Congress is structured as follows

• CHISA 2018 – General topics of chemical and process engineering
• CHISA 2018 – Specialised symposia
• PRES 2018 – 21^st Conference on process integration, modelling and optimisation for energy saving and pollution reduction
• Exhibition MARCHES 2018
• EFCE WP Meetings and other agenda

The program covers invited plenary lectures and keynote lectures, parallel lecture sessions, and poster sessions. Some symposia will be co-organised with the corresponding EFCE Working Parties and/or other recognised international bodies. The possibility to arrange short courses (mainly after the Congress) is offered. Anyone interested in arranging such a course (refresher) should contact the Organising Committee; the courses will then be announced in the second circular. For these courses it will be possible to publish lecture notes (with ISBN number).

Original contributions, process applications, case studies, state-of-the-art papers and commercial information on the following subjects are invited.

EXHIBITION MARCHES 2018

MARCHES 2018 – the MARket of CHemical Engineering and Services will take place in the premises of the CHISA 2018. Standard exhibition booths of 6 m² floor area will be available for business negotiations and demonstration purposes. A Catalogue of Exhibitors will be distributed to all Congress participants. An expression of interest in the Exhibition should be sent to org@chisa.cz upon which more detailed information will be provided.
