Round table
Traditionally, within the Processing ’21 program, a Round Table on current topics in the field of process technology is planned.
The circular approach to the economy changes the approach to production and consumption by taking into account the design, use of resources and waste management – which does not exist in the circular economy, but is a raw material for other processes. Renewable energy sources are given priority, with its efficient use. At the center is a man whose habits must change from a linear to a circular approach. The introduction of the concept of circular economy in the process industry is the basis for the realization of the goals of sustainable development in the reduction of harmful emissions, the introduction of renewable energy sources and the production and trade of sustainable products, i.e. closing the product – waste – product circle in different areas of the process industry. This round table will bring together experts who know how all this can be achieved.
Every usage of water in industry requires water of a certain quality. The availability of quality water is a key prerequisite for the operation of an industry, because many processes cannot be performed without water of a certain quality. In order to ensure the required quantity and quality of water, a systematic approach is applied to control the use of water, reduce its consumption, and reduce the possibility of its pollution. Water that is not part of the product, at the end of the production process passes into the wastewater stream or is released into the air in the form of water vapor. Wastewater treatment in industry can be of a significant cost for operators, starting with investments in the construction of wastewater treatment plants, and then the operating costs of the plant itself (electricity needed to operate engines and pumps, treatment chemicals, etc.)…
The importance of gases in the process industry is indisputable – their production, distribution, and storage are complicated processes and must be carefully designed and implemented.
Gases are used in various industries – food, pharmaceutical, chemical industry, medicine, transport…
Of no less importance are gases as an energy source in district heating systems…
Representatives of gas companies will present examples of good practice in this area.
