Session Description

The multi-trillion-dollar oil, gas, and petrochemical industries are grounded in decades of process technology innovation. Yet, this foundation is undergoing a profound transformation as sustainability, circularity, and decarbonization take center stage. From plastics recycling and the electrification of reactors to carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS), a new generation of technologies is poised to reshape how we design and operate processes. This session highlights cutting-edge innovations across both established and emerging sectors that have the potential to redefine industrial practice and drive the transition to a more sustainable and resilient future.
