3 hybrid stages with inspiring key notes, high-level interviews, live talks to the point and visionary tech demos, both on-site and remote from all around the globe.
ACHEMA Pulse
The topics currently on the top of its agenda are as global as the process industry itself. ACHEMA Pulse offers a hub for all those who want to participate in the discussion – whether on the interactive platform, the congress or the live stages.
Sometimes it looks like almost every innovation is a digital one. It is not, but the shift to a truly digital process industry is inexorable. AI, VR, IoT, 5G– all these buzz words and abbreviations promise a better (technical) future, but some projects are stopped when it comes to security and investment costs. We bring the discussion back down to earth and will discuss how far we have come and where we go from here.
Faster, bigger, more global: Vaccine development and the establishment of large-scale vaccine production have shown what is possible when research, develop-ment and production are accelerated. Can experiences be transferred, and how does this change the industry? This will be discussed by developers, producers and suppliers of equipment and machinery deeply involved in these processes.
Plant operators, module manufacturers, and automation engineers have been working for years to agree on standards, methods, models and procedures for modular production. They all agree that a modular plant is operated efficiently only if the modular units are intelligently interconnected, coordinated, controlled and regulated. We will show best practices and discuss the economic and tech future of modular and flexible production.
#NetZero and sustainable production will be some of the critical drivers for our industry in the near future. Which technologies and equipment do we need to enable carbon-neutral production? How can we foster investments into clean energy and green tech? Is Europe ready for the Green Deal? Can the process industry at all help to achieve the world's climate ambitions? Question after question discussed with thought leaders and visionaries.
Is hydrogen a gamechanger or just the next hype? Are we entering the hydrogen economy? How can the necessary electrolysis capacity be built up, and how does hydrogen interact with other technologies and other industries? The programme includes a look at the global hydrogen activities from the Americas to Asia and a discussion of the smallest molecule's real potential with leading executives.
A change is gradually taking place on the chemical and pharmaceutical industries' boards – women are taking over technical portfolios and board chairmanships. Current surveys show that this is by no means the end of the matter. How can diversity be firmly anchored in the business world, and how do companies benefit from it?

A preview on the ACHEMA Congress
Researchers, developers and users meet at the ACHEMA congress to discuss new developments and solutions for current challenges in the process industries.
The PRAXISforums
The PRAXISforums take place within close proximity to the exhibition groups. Short presentations cover current issues on production, best practices and ready-to-use technologies, always with an eye on application.
The congress sessions
The congress sessions discuss application-oriented research and the development from proof-of-concept to the threshold of market entry. Current trends within process technology are highlighted as well.
Future production: modular, connected and smart
Industrial intelligence and sensor-based process control
Pumps, compressors, valves and fittings: state of the art in fluid handling
Innovative mixing and separation solutions
Bioprocessing: bioreactors, process development and control
Renewing the chemical & pharma supply chain
Materials and material processing
Innovative product design in mechanical process engineering
The digital lab: laboratory and analytical techniques
