The conference focused on advancing petrochemical processes through sustainable innovations, including the use of unconventional feedstocks like waste and bio-based materials, enhancing energy efficiency, reducing product carbon footprints, and electrifying processes. Discussions also addressed future raw material sources, circular economy strategies, the role of catalysis in energy transition, and the ultimate goal of reducing and replacing fossil carbon in petrochemistry.
Hannah Stieber from Partner MPG attended the conference to present the E-TANDEM project through a poster presentation. With an estimated 70 participants, the conference brought together experts from both industry and academia, making it an ideal platform for networking and presenting the E-TANDEM project. The E-TANDEM project was a great fit for the conference, which focused on reducing and replacing fossil carbon in petrochemistry, like using catalysis. Its innovative idea caught a lot of attention and led to some great discussions at the poster session.
