Workshop

2nd Australian Conference on Green and Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering

Discover cutting-edge research, network with leading experts, and explore ground-breaking solutions for a sustainable future through green chemistry & engineering. An industry-focussed day on Wednesday, 11th December 2024, will facilitate industry, academia, and government authorities to network, share information, and identify opportunities for collaboration.

Plenary Speakers: 

Professor Paul Anastas, Yale University

Professor John Warner, Technology Greenhouse

Professor Qin Li, Griffith Univerisity

Circular Economy: Policy Making for Traceability of Chemicals along Value Chains

In the EU Interreg project ECHT, actors along the textile value chain (H&M, LIST, Inditex, Puma, Team2, etc.) are convinced that the traceability of chemicals in their products is an essential prerequisite for meeting the objectives of the Sustainable Textiles Strategy. As part of the project, roadmaps for the implementation of chemicals traceability in the industry will be developed – complemented by a policy action plan.

Emerald Isle Conference on Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering (EIC 2025)

Emerald Isle Conference on Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering.
EIC 2025 

QUB Belfast  9-11th April 2025. 

The aim of this international conference is to act as a venue for green chemists, engineers and educators to meet on the Emerald Isle, share best practice and strengthen collaboration, and for global thought leaders to offer insights and shape the future direction of green chemistry and engineering education, research and industrial implementation.

Protocols for Methylene Chloride Compliance

(Note that the title on the ACS website is not correct, but the registration Link does work) 

The recently published EPA TSCA final rule on methylene chloride bans most uses of this chemical. Laboratory handling is permitted only if potentially exposed persons are covered by a compliant Workplace Chemical Protection Program (WCCP). This includes requirements for exposure assessment and a significantly lower action level and occupational exposure limits than required by the OSHA Methylene Chloride standard (29 CFR 1910.1052).

ACS CHAS RAMP in the Research Lab

This 3.5-hour workshop is primarily directed at frontline researchers in academic institutions: graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and undergraduate students.

Learn the principles of the RAMP paradigm through a series of case studies and discussion sessions focused on practicing each of the RAMP steps.

Faculty and safety staff are also encouraged to attend to learn strategies to better prepare the student researchers on their campuses for risk management of their experimental work.

Graduate School of Environmental Studies Summer School

Founded in 2020, The Graduate School of Environmental Studies (GSES) Summer School is a collaborative effort by Tohoku University faculty members and affiliates to showcase ongoing research in the GSES and serve as a networking platform for researchers. The core concept of the summer school is to host an engaging week of international lectures, through which faculty and students discuss future avenues of collaboration and academic exchanges.

2025 ACS GCI Green & Sustainable Chemistry Summer School

The ACS Green and Sustainable Chemistry Summer School (GSCSS) is a highly selective week-long program for graduate students and postdoctoral chemists and engineers. Each year, approximately 60 exceptional students from North, Central, and South America and the Caribbean are selected from a large pool of applicants and gather for this fully funded once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The American Chemical Society pays for all eligible travel and program costs.

IUPAC XVI Postgraduate Summer School on Green Chemistry

The Summer School offers the unique opportunity to bring together a number of experts in the field of Green Chemistry and young researchers. This synergy of competencies is a valuable occasion to promote and facilitate diffusion and transfer of knowledge in this emerging and evolving field.

In this Summer School, postgraduate students will have the opportunity to present their research during either Virtual and on-person Poster Session. The best three posters will be selected and awarded by our sponsors during an award ceremony.
