Honoring Professor GD Yadav - Celebrating his excellence in Chemical Engineering Research

As the demand for natural resources continues to soar and competition intensifies in emerging economies due to urbanisation
and industrialisation, the need for sustainable practices has never been more critical. In response to this pressing challenge, we
are proud to announce the second edition of SusChemE, organised by the esteemed Institute of Chemical Technology (ICT) in
association with The Catalysis Society of India (CSI).

This groundbreaking event serves as a global forum where the worlds of research and industry converge to explore the
transformative power of chemistry-driven and engineering technological advancements in achieving sustainable development.
SusChemE 2.0 aims to facilitate profound discussions on green chemistry, biochemistry, and other cutting-edge solutions that
will shape the future of our societies.

Join us from 14 -16 September 2023 in Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai campus as we gather thought leaders, industry
experts, and scientific minds from across the globe to ignite new possibilities and pave the way towards a more sustainable
and prosperous world.
