Abstract

56 six years ago the first European Symposium on Chemical Reaction Engineering (ESCRE) was held in Amsterdam. After four symposia this conference series turned into the international symposium ISCRE, from early 70s on biannually, alternating between Europe and America. Since our Asian friends have joined this symposium series a decade ago, every six year Europe will be hosting an ISCRE event, the next one in 2018. So we decided to start a renewal of ESCRE in 2015 in Germany. The Annual Meeting of the ProcessNet Subject Division Reaction Engineering will be held during this event. Germany is an ideal choice for this meeting due to its diversified and very strong community in CRE. The interaction between academia and industry is traditionally strong. The theme of the conference, "CRE providing tomorrow's solutions" emphasizes the necessity of CRE to meet the future challenges, particularly in energy sciences and technology. Topics: Reaction Engineering Fundamentals, Multiphase Systems, Catalytic Engineering, Micro Reaction Engineering, Polymer Reaction Engineering, Reaction Engineering of Fossil FuelsPhoto- and Electrochemical Engineering, Reactor Engineering, CO2 Utilization, Biomass Conversion, Industrial Frontiers.
