Sustainability and Sustainable Systems Engineering Conference (SuSChemE Conference 2026)

Overview

Held in Athens from June 28–30, 2026, the SuSChemE (Sustainable Systems & Chemical Engineering) Conference is the flagship event of the EFCE Sustainability Section. The event positions chemical engineering as a key driver of sustainable development, focusing on how industries can be redesigned through circular economy principles, advanced technologies, and systems thinking.

Co-organised with SUSTENS2 and supported by European and Greek institutions, the conference convenes researchers, engineers, and industry practitioners. The programme combines scientific sessions with hands-on workshops, training on sustainability tools, and demonstrations of industrial biotechnology applications. It also serves as a platform for EU-funded projects to present outcomes and engage with stakeholders.
