12008 Advancement in Manufacturing Tech
OverviewThis session seek papers that address recent advances and contributions in chemical manufacturing technologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, new or novel concepts and improvements in better understanding of manufacturing principles, novel theories and technology development, and applications with significant benefits achieved by the application of improved technologies. Moreover, the definitions of new problem areas as they relate to chemical engineering manufacturing process are solicited. Leading developers of novel industrial technologies are also encouraged to describe the new technical features of their offerings.
