Sustainable Chemistry in Action: Emissions, Efficiency & Infrastructure

Session Type:

Oral
As market dynamics continue to elevate the importance of transparency and sustainability, chemical manufacturers are increasingly adopting a sustainable growth mindset to remain competitive and compliant. Manufacturing operations are under heightened scrutiny as companies work to align with evolving environmental standards and stakeholder expectations. This symposium will convene industry leaders to examine how chemical companies are reducing scope emissions and navigating complex regulatory landscapes. Discussions will center on actionable strategies such as minimizing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), transitioning to renewable electricity sources, improving operational efficiency, and anticipating shifts in infrastructure legislation. The event will also spotlight the role of chemical innovation in advancing sustainable manufacturing. Breakthroughs in reaction efficiency such as faster kinetics, lower energy requirements, and streamlined process steps are proving instrumental in helping organizations meet their public sustainability commitments. Join us as we explore how chemistry can serve as a catalyst for sustainable infrastructure and operational excellence across the sector.
