06003 Emulsion and Process Industry: Mixing Problems and Solutions
OverviewThis year, the government and AIChE is clearly highlighting the world's mission sensitive nature of more knowledge and solutions for the energy and process industry. Unique challenges exist in discovery, development, and processing for this industry. As it is being further developed, it is critical to expose issues, explore further, and discuss existing solutions with regards to mixing. We invite papers on mixing-related process work or fundamental studies that are empirical or theoretical to develop a body of knowledge for the energy and chemical industry, thus serving the world's needs.
