The Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan (SCEJ) is working on specific case studies by strengthening cooperation with local industries and communities as well as developing and deepening technologies and academic systems to achieve carbon neutrality. There is no doubt that we must decarbonize energy system, that is, move away from fossil fuels, and then we need a carbon neutral carbon source to replace naphtha from oil refining.
This year's symposium will focus on woody biomass as a carbon-neutral carbon source, and will discuss collaboration with the domestic forestry industry, chemical synthesis technology using woody biomass, and the design of Japan's overall industrial structure. On September 13, the day before the SCEJ Autumn meeting, we will hold an invited lecture, a requested lecture, and a panel discussion as a symposium open to the public with no charge for all participations. We are going to discuss about the future society that chemical engineering will innovate together with all of you.

Registration is FREE for audiences attending only for the public sessions (SP-1, SP-2, HQ-11 (from Korea or Taiwan only), and HQ-13) as an audience (not as a speaker). See Details

The Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan presented the Sapporo Declaration titled "Declaration on the United Nations SDGs at Sapporo 2019 Chemical Engineering for Human Well-Being," at APCChE 2019. The primary objective is for chemical engineers to contribute to the promotion of human well-being through the advancement of technologies based on chemical engineering.
In this symposium, we will focus on the challenges faced by small island developing states (SIDS) and explore ways to solve these challenges by utilizing the knowledge accumulated within the researchers and experts in the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan and integrating the knowledge and efforts of other fields that have been involved in development. Specifically, lectures from various perspectives from within and outside the society will be followed by a panel discussion and participatory group discussions among the participants for discussing collaboration in the future.

Registration is FREE for audiences attending only for the public sessions (SP-1, SP-2, HQ-11 (from Korea or Taiwan only), and HQ-13) as an audience (not as a speaker). See Details
