About conference

The 9th IUPAC International Conference on Green Chemistry (9th ICGC), will take place in Athens, Greece, on 5th – 9th September 2022 at Zappeion Megaron, offering the choice of virtual participation.

Program

The 9th ICGC will cover the following general topics:

  1. Green Chemistry in Academia, Research and Industry
  2. Green Chemistry in Education and Society
  3. Green Chemistry for Sustainable Development, Bioeconomy and Circular Economy

The scientific programme will deal with the global trends and developments in the field of green and sustainable chemistry, as well as with research and technology aspects of high importance to specific parts of the world. For example, the topic of biomass valorization will be discussed both with regard to agricultural as well as forestry wastes in order  to be of interest to the relevant countries and regions. On the other hand, the use of non-toxic solvents, the development of low/no waste industrial chemical processes, the use of bio- and degradable plastics and the increase of societal and political awareness towards green chemistry practices, will comprise of topics with a broader audience. The contribution of Green Chemistry to the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations will be also highlighted. Within this context, both novel fundamental chemistry approaches as well as dedicated industry-oriented processes will be discussed, in the different areas of chemistry and chemical engineering.
