In its first three years (2009, 2010, and 2011) the conference established a solid reputation within the process engineering community, attracting between 340 and 400 participants each year.
This year, with the venue moved from Galveston to the mainland, the conference is expected to be even bigger and better, with more regional participation from the largest concentration of petroleum refining, chemical processing, engineering and technology firms in the U.S. You don’t want to miss it.
