| 9.LogiChem 2012 |
| Dates | 17 Apr 2012 → 19 Apr 2012 | [ID=454422]  |
| Location | Antwerp, Belgium |
| Abstract | The 11th edition of LogiChem brings you a programme covering the most pressing issues affecting senior supply chain professionals within the chemical industry in a format that fosters high levels of interactive networking, learning and benchmarking. The market is now very concerned about the volatility of the economic environment, particularly since lower production levels (particularly in August) and amid fears about a double dip recession that will ultimately impact even the fairly robust chemical industry. Equipping yourself with the knowledge and the strategies to face the current challenges and build a resilient supply chain is critical to the survival, growth and bottom line of your business. |

| 14.Industrial Ecology — The Role of Industrial Ecology in Addressing Sustainability Imperatives |
| Dates | 17 Jun 2012 → 22 Jun 2012 | [ID=455059]  |
| Location | Les Diablerets, Switzerland |
| Organizer | Gordon Research Conferences |
| Abstract | The 2012 Gordon Research Conference on Industrial Ecology will examine key sustainability imperatives from various angles. Industrial Ecology is an interdisciplinary field of science that aims at a holistic understanding of the technosphere, ecosphere and the interactions between the two that result from the use of resources and generation of pollutants and wastes. The conference will explore how industrial ecology helps address some of the key interconnected questions that the planet is facing: (1) how do we feed the 9 billion people that will inhabit the earth by 2050?; (2) do we have sufficient supplies of affordable metals and minerals to support an ever more populous and wealthier world?; (3) how do we green rapidly industrializing nations?; (4) can we sustain economic growth?; (5) how can we envisage a sustainable future, and what are the roles of scenarios in industrial ecology research?; (6) what do we know about the consequences of policy intervention?; (7) how do we address the rebound effect when promoting efficiency? Finally, the last session of the conference will be devoted to an open discussion on how industrial ecology can best contribute to addressing these questions: what are the challenges for industrial ecology in dealing with these issues, and what are future research priorities? Invited speakers will present state-of-the-art research from various disciplines in order to provide unique insights and perspectives in approaching these questions. The conference affords an excellent opportunity to explore core sustainability challenges in greater depth with students and researchers at the forefront of their respective fields. Gordon Research Conferences (GRCs) are unique among scientific meetings for their prestige, quality of content, small size, diversity of participants, research—often still unpublished—at the frontiers of science, and a schedule optimized for extended discussion and informal interactions. |

| 17.Green Chemistry |
| Dates | 22 Jul 2012 → 27 Jul 2012 | [ID=455501]  |
| Location | Lucca (Barga), Italy |
| Organizer | Gordon Research Conferences |
| Abstract | The 2012 "Olympic" Gordon Research Conference on Green Chemistry will present cutting-edge research and the most important advances relevant to environmentally benign and sustainable chemistry and chemical processing. The key scientific sessions are of major interest to both industry and academia and will be focused on designing greener chemicals, greener approaches to organic synthesis, catalysis and biocatalysis, polymers and materials, bio-inspired materials, energy and fuels, and also to assessing our progress toward a sustainable future. The conference will bring together an outstanding and diverse group of scientists and is particularly important because the outputs of Green Chemistry research are now driving innovation in both academia and industry and are proving to be key measures of competitiveness in major industries. Moreover, this is one of the few areas of chemistry where the drive for novel research solutions in academia is equaled by activities in industry. All of this makes the Gordon Research Conference on Green Chemistry the perfect forum for younger scientists and students to meet and interact with leaders in the field. This is a lively and inclusive conference with opportunities for all participants to contribute through discussions; informal brainstorming sessions; and for junior scientists and graduate students to present their work in poster format with some poster presenters to be selected to give short talks. |
