The 20th International Symposium on Chemical Reaction Engineering

Green Chemical Reaction Engineering for a Sustainable Future

Sun 7–Wed 10 September 2008

Kyoto International Conference Center, Kyoto, JAPAN

ISCRE 20 is hosted by the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan and operated by the SCEJ Divisions of Chemical Reaction Engineering, Energy Engineering, and Environmental Engineering and the Asia-Pacific Chemical Reaction Engineering (APCRE) Working Party.

We are honored to host the 20th International Symposium on Chemical Reaction Engineering to be held in Kyoto, Japan. The ISCRE 20 meeting theme is “Green Chemical Reaction Engineering for a Sustainable Future.” The theme was chosen to be inclusive of a broad range of both modern and traditional chemical reaction engineering topics — from engineering science fundamentals to emerging industrial scale engineering challenges. Communication of recent research and industry issues across these fields will contribute to the progressive development of processes and products that are environmentally more benign beyond the Kyoto Protocol.

Manuscript submission

Submission of a full-paper manuscript for the ISCRE 20 special issues of CES and JCEJ started on June 1. The extended submission deadline is July 8 for CES and July 12 for JCEJ. See the Manuscript submission page.

If you submit a manuscript to CES, please choose ‘Kouichi Miura, Managing Guest Editor’ as an editor you request. If you have completed the submission procedure, you don't need to do anything even if you chose any other editors.

The manuscript submission deadline was extended to July 8 for CES and July 12 for JCEJ.
