The Canadian Green Chemistry and Engineering Network (CGCEN) and the Chemical Institute of Canada (CIC) extend a warm invitation to researchers, educators, business representatives and policy experts from around the world to hear and share the latest advances in green chemistry at the 3rd IUPAC International Conference on Green Chemistry. Topics will include green chemistry, green engineering, energy production, policy, and education. In keeping with the theme of the conference, The Road to Greener Industry , industry researchers and representatives are particularly encouraged to attend.
Conference Topics: - Benign synthesis (catalysis, solvents, reagents) - Joelle Pelletier, Universit de Montr al
- Green chemistry for energy production (hydrogen, fuel cell, greener energy production, fuels from biomass) - Tom Baker, University of Ottawa
- Chemicals from renewables (chemicals from biomass, waste plastics, waste CO2) - France Rochette, Industrial Subcommittee, DuPont Canada
- Green engineering (process intensification, energy savings, separations) - France Rochette, Industrial Subcommittee, DuPont Canada
- Education in green chemistry and engineering - Mary Kirchhoff, American Chemical Society
- Policy (corporate and government) - Craig Crawford, BioAuto Council
