Recent geopolitical events have highlighted Europe’s vulnerability to disruptions in fossil fuel supply and the urgent need for decarbonisation. Despite climate commitments, many industrial sectors face challenges in implementing effective and viable solutions. Chemical engineering is key to advancing toward net-zero emissions and improving resource efficiency.

This EFCE forum will explore how innovation can drive decarbonisation and circularity through practical solutions and emerging technologies. It will include a plenary lecture by Dr. Marina Micari (EPFL) and a roundtable with industry experts. MECCE delegates are invited to participate and contribute their perspectives.
