Chemical sciences and its related technologies are one of the main drivers to reduce the carbon footprint in industrial production and have a tremendous impact to reach the goal of a «net zero society». Energy saving, waste reduction or using more sustainable raw materials and catalysts are only some examples that need to be improve to run a circular economy.
The Ilmac Conference will focus each day on a specific topic related to sustainability and provides lectures, contributed talks, discussion forums and networking opportunities for interested community members from chemistry, pharma and biotech.
