The 12th World Congress of Chemical Engineering (WCCE12), the 21st Asia Pacific Confederation of Chemical Engineering Congress (APCChE 21), and the concurrent event — the 2025 International Chemical Innovation Expo — will be grandly held from July 14 to 17 at the China National Convention Center in Beijing.
The “Olympics” of the Global Chemical Industry Debuts in China | Defining New Industry Heights from Three Key Dimensions
Jointly organized by the World Chemical Engineering Council and the Asia Pacific Confederation of Chemical Engineering, and supported by the China Association for Science and Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, this landmark event is hailed as an Olympic-level gathering for the chemical engineering community.
Unprecedented Lineup of Experts
Nobel Laureates Bernard Feringa and Benjamin List will headline the plenary sessions, alongside over 5,000 top scholars and industry leaders from more than 30 countries, to explore paradigm shifts in chemical engineering.
Comprehensive Coverage of Cutting-Edge Topics
A total of 33 thematic sessions will delve into seven major focus areas, including artificial intelligence, new energy, and green & low-carbon technologies. For the first time, an interactive zone titled “AI Empowering Chemical Engineering” will be featured.
Fully Integrated Industry Ecosystem
The 11,000m² exhibition area will showcase global excellence across academia, industry, and research. A pioneering “1 Exhibition + 3 Conferences + 6 Special Events” model will accelerate the full cycle of technology transformation and application.
DODGEN’s Deep Engagement: Shaping the Future of the Chemical Industry
