In the coming decades, the chemical process industry will play a critical role in addressing grand societal challenges related to sustainability, human health or availability of food and clean water. The necessary transition of the chemical sector to address those challenges will include, among other things, decarbonisation, the use of renewable energy and raw materials in manufacturing processes and the circular economy. Process intensification presents a critical element of that transition. The 8th European Process Intensification Conference will be held in Warsaw, Poland, from 31 May till 2 June 2023, and, similarly to the previous editions of EPIC and IPIC events, will present an excellent opportunity to learn about recent implementations of PI in industry, the latest advances in research, and new developments at technology providers.
