Goals and Outcoming
Cleaner products and processes are aimed by the idea of industrial sustainability. In addition, resource conservation and waste minimization, the reduction and avoidance of hazardous health situations and environmentally hazardous materials and a decrease in environmental risks and accidents as well as prevention, precaution and evaluation, along with technology, process and product development, play an import role.
Thus, the conference will focus on the following issues:
? Can industrial chemistry and biotechnology enhance sustainable development?
? What is sustainable biotechnology?
? How can hazardous chemicals be managed and assessed properly, especially with regard to the new European Chemicals Policy?
? How can chemical industry be encouraged to take further moves towards sustainability?
Operators of chemical and biotechnological plants have already begun amending the European chemical and dangerous materials guidelines, especially in the new countries joining the European Union. However, modern chemical and biotechnological industries must do more to improve long-term resource conservation, waste minimization and health safety.
The aims of the conference are twofold: By keynotes and presentations it should be clarified how industrial chemistry and biotechnology may attribute and support Sustainable Development. We are looking forward to fruitful and critical discussions. Thereby a theoretical fundament should be created for the second aim, which is to kick-off for designing a new BUP course module focussing on Sustainable Chemistry and Biotechnology with particular focus on modified European chemical and hazardous material guidelines. Indeed, within a workshop or a brainstorming session attention will be given to possible contents, definitions, case studies, education approaches and probable teaching methods.
