CCR 33rd Annual Meeting

May 20-22, 2012

21st Century Challenges and Innovations for the Chemical Industry


When CCR was founded thirty three years ago, the US chemical enterprise was focused on the oil industry, commodity chemicals, and specialty chemicals.  Recent innovations in chemistry, biology, and engineering have led to a broad spectrum of new products and technologies in a variety of industries including pharmaceutical manufacturing, electronics, and alternative energy. 

CCR’s 2012 Annual Meeting will focus on the challenges facing and innovations needed by the chemical industry for the 21st Century in three critical and growing areas: alternative energy, human health, and agriculture. These challenges are likely to require new kinds of collaborations across very different disciplines and new types of scientists and engineers.
