Concentrate on process intensification
The BHR Group has issued a call for papers for the Seventh International Conference on Process Intensification, to improve efficiency and performance
Governments and process industries recognise that sustainable growth can only be achieved through simultaneous and well-balanced economic, environmental and social progress Process intensification is a sustainable technology that helps to deliver this progress through efficiencies and performance that are beyond the capabilities of traditional production techniques

A pipeline is often the most environmentally-friendly, efficient and cost-effective way of transporting liquids and gases; BHR issue a call for papers for their next Pipeline Protection Conference
Processes that improve performance without imposing greater strains on the environment will be much 'sought-after' in the future as government and business face the challenge of supporting more people with scarcer and more costly resources.
When applied correctly, process intensification can deliver step changes in performance that are acceptable to society while enabling economic benefits.
Existing and proposed regulation will continue to place pressure on the process industry to improve its performance.

International Conference on Pipeline Protection
The 16th International Conference on Pipeline Protection will provide the latest information on research, developments and applications: scheduled for 2005 in Cyprus, BHR has issued a call for papers
Progress will be stimulated and encouraged by drawing together information about the latest innovations and applications industry and academia.
The BHR Group 7th International Conference on Process Intensification extends a series that was established in 1996.
Building on the success of its predecessors this latest conference will examine the issues surrounding intensified processes and foster the latest academic thinking that will develop into the applications of the future.
The organisers have issued a call for papers for presentation at the event, which will be held in Albany, USA, 15-17 September 2008.
The conference provides a forum for today's practical solutions and the ideas from industry and academia that will become best practice in the future.
The technical committee especially welcomes papers from industrial end-users who are at different stages of integrating intensification processes and who can present their experiences, either at the start or after successful intensification work has delivered the designed production improvements.
Case studies that illustrate technology transfer from one industry to another or that present learning experiences gained from solving real problems and meeting new challenges are often identified by delegates as providing the most valuable contributions to a technical conference.
It is anticipated by the organisers that papers accepted for presentation to the conference will be drawn from a wide range of applications including: heat and mass transfer; intensified batch reactors; intensive continuous production; reactors and micro-reactors; compact heat exchangers; separation processes including centrifugal fields; improved plant design; distributed processing through PI; flexible PI plant; enabling technologies for PI applications; improved process control systems; accelerated process development.
The conference is aimed at chemical engineers, academics and other professionals involved with the design and implementation of chemical process plant in industries including: bulk chemicals; fine/specialty chemicals; pharmaceuticals; biotechnology; polymers/plastics; water treatment; minerals/metals; novel materials.
The Seventh International Conference on Process Intensification is followed by BHR Group's First International Conference on Nanotechnology which covers many complementary themes and runs from 17-19 September 2008 at the same venue.
