EUROPEAN FEDERATION OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES forthe year ended 31 D•eemb•r 2021 KEY ACHEVEMENTS DURING 2021 In 2021, scientkfie cooperatlon ané piofesslonal exchange was stlll affected by COVID-19 related restrlctions in many Etjyopean countries. The digital tools already used to cope with Ihe pandemic in 2020 became even more RnportAnt in 2021. The main sci8ntth¢ 8V8nl in Europe for chemic81 engl￿er1Th9, th8 joint European Conference on Chemical Englneering J Europaan Confaranc for Appliad Btot8chnology. had to ba hèld fully onling. since hygSene requirements and high levels of uncertainty mad8 an iTrperson event irnPOS5ible. It is credit lo the dedication of the organisers and scientffic volunteers that thg avent was Successfully moved from irtrperson to virtual in a matter of weeks, all¢ying EFCE and ESBES to deliver a succ&ssfvl online conference under the headline of 'Engine8ring th8 Future". The spe¢tnJm ¢)f topics ranged from raw materials and their availability - including C02 - to Ihe handling of energy and water resources and dèèp into the del8ils of proe8ss ÈnginÈèring. ECCEIECAB 2021 was 8190 host to thè first èV8r EFCE Scianc8 Slam, vthich wa5 won by Sofia Garcia Fracaro presenting 'lmmersive techndogies applied for training of opwatt)r5 ifb th8 ¢hemirAI industry". Whlle the suecgssful EFCE S￿￿[ght Talk serigs wont into Its second y98r, thg Ilrst-èvar EFCE Eady Career Englneers Forum took p18ce in April 2021. Presenters from seven European counlrte3 discussed 08dy care8r-relèvanl topics, ranging frotn national aclNili05 like AIDIC'S earfy cateers worf(in9 group Giovani or the Cherncar cofflpetitron, via speciBI education off•rings like summer schods and student compèts"lons, to Europoan young prolessKJnal n&hYorks round tab18 events discusslng recent graduates, thoughts about themlcal englneering Curricula. Sperial interest workshops on caraar opportunities in acad8my, industry and d8slgn and on sustainabilty e(xhplet8d thè programmè. which was followed ty almost a hundred porb'cipants. A major EFCE re5earth PToject, the EFCE European Skills Base Survey. wa5 completed in 2021. Rdiable 5tstistical data for a subSect as dlsunct as chemical engineedng is difficult to axtract from the gov@mm8nt or consullng databases,. e.g. for Gerrnany, EFCE together Ihe national organisations ProcessNet and Oechema had to run its own 3urvey ¢1 73 universities offering chemi￿1 and biTrchemci81 engineering or sirnilar le.g. enwronrnent81 engineering, brewing technology) courses.

However, coverfng thè Cost of hosilng and suppOr￿n9 online scientific events has not yet been frjlly addressed, given that pa￿apa￿t9 ar8 increasingly reluctsnt to pay for online scientffic exchange. Mthile wllin9nes8 to particbpata in onlin8 trainings remains strong. The European Federation of Chemical Enginegring IEFCE) has pmmoted cooperation In Europ8 and elsewhere between non-profit making professional scientific aThJ technical societies since 1953. In 2014 EFCE was registered as a Charitable Incorporated Or9anisation ICIOI to help it foster the general 8dvancement of sclence and education of the public in chemical engineering. In addition, we support the development of chemical engineering in cdlaboralion wth our rnember sodeties. EFCE encourages progress in chemical engineering through facilitsting the exchange of informatiw and opinion in m99tings. congresses and journals. supporbng leading iesearchers and emergin9 talent through medals and prize9. and enabling indu8th"alists an¢J acadomts from acr<>ss Europe to discuss topics of common concem. OBJECTIVES AND ACTMTIES Working parties and ¥•ctions EFCE has 20 WoTking Parties 8nd four Sections, whose activities span OTg8nising Confe￿nces. promoting and judging awards, running summer (x)urse¥ for PhD students.
