How can the chemical, pharmaceutical, and life sciences industries arrange their production more sustainably? During the event, highly topical, application-relevant subjects will be reviewed, discussed, and rated from different perspectives.
There are many visions, such as hydrogen economy, circular economy, or waste-free production for a sustainable industrial future. But what is already applicable today? How do we deal with climate change and resource scarcity? How can processes be developed and scaled more efficiently, and what tools are available for this? And what can industries learn from each other?
