Critical Response: Enhancing Emergency Management and Decision-Making in the Chemical Industry
This session, led by CHEMTREC in collaboration with the HSE lead from Infineum UK, explores the critical role of emergency preparedness in the chemical industry. Often, those tasked with managing high-pressure, hazardous incidents are far removed from their day-to-day technical roles in labs or operations. We will share insights from our joint efforts to identify […]
Reactor digital twins for operational excellence
Complex multitubular reactors are at the heart of many chemical processes, and their performance is often key to plant profitability. However, operators typically have little visibility of internal performance, relying instead on limited product stream instrumentation and after-the-event analysis. As the supply of raw materials and demand for products changes, operators adopt a conservative approach […]
Enabling bio-based chemistry: the case for a biomass hierarchy
As the demand for bio-based chemicals grows, the gap between supply and demand is growing. How do we ensure that competition for raw materials doesn’t end up stifling innovation? What is the role of policy in shaping the use of biomass in chemicals and materials? This short presentation will make some practical suggestions to unlock […]
Fluid Bed Technology – Optimisation of Product Properties
Fluid Bed Technology enables the direct influence on product properties. No matter what process we are talking about (granulation, agglomeration, coating, encapsulation), it is possible to turn a customers starting material into a product with desired or required properties like particle size, bulk density, residual moisture or other parameters. Fluid Bed Technology can be used […]
Navigating the Changing Tide of Chemical Labelling: Best Practices and a Clarification of the Latest CLP Label Updates
In an ever-evolving regulatory landscape, staying informed and compliant is paramount and Hibiscus hope to illuminate the pivotal topic of chemical labelling and inform delegates of the latest changes to labels under the updated Classification, Labelling, and Packaging (CLP) regulations. We plan to guide delegates through the essential aspects of chemical labelling that every professional […]
The industry standard guideline for Product Carbon Footprint – Why they matter and how to use them.
Together for Sustainability (TfS) is a member-driven initiative, representing over €800 billion revenue in the chemical industry. Steve will give an introduction to TfS and therefore give context as to why this PCF guideline matters and why it is the industry standard for PCFs . He will then go into more detail about where to […]
A breakthrough in safe and effective peroxide oxidations
Hydrogen peroxide is attractive as a green oxidant: it is the most atom efficient and contrasts with common oxidants such as chromates (toxic and wasteful), nitric acid, and peracids (explosive and wasteful). Organic oxidations are the most important chemical transformations and hydrogen peroxide is used in countless processes including the manufacture of Pyrethroid insecticides and […]
Finding growth through dangerous goods compliance
The rules governing the transport of dangerous chemicals, whether by air, road or sea are complicated and sometimes difficult to navigate. But too often compliance is seen as a tick box rather than a growth lever. The transport of dangerous chemicals is rightly highly regulated, and when something goes wrong in transport, there will of […]
