Innovation vs Application: Maximizing Efficiency in Peptide Drug Discovery from a Chemistry Perspective

Two years after the adoption of the EU Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability (CSS), the revamp of key EU chemicals and products regulations is underway.

Petrochemical plants and refineries both process hydrocarbon derived materials. Refineries focus on fuels production. Refinery products include LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), gasoline (petrol), kerosene and jet fuel, diesel, fuel oils, and coke. Petrochemicals focus on creating intermediates used to produce industrial and consumer products. Major petrochemical processes include steam cracking to produce ethylene (ethane), propylene (propene), and butadiene and aromatics plants producing benzene, toluene, xylene and other aromatics.

Last Friday ChemSec Marketplace hosted the presentation of Nouryon’s collaborative innovation program: Imagine Chemistry 2019.Chemical company Nouryon is looking for ways to create a more sustainable future through chemistry. Through this program, they invite teams to work with them as equal partners and tackle some of the most urgent chemistry-related challenges and turn innovative ideas into reality.

Optimising the chemistry, blending, and formulation of polymers can have profound impacts on the performance, economics, and sustainability of an array of products and industrial processes.
