CAPE WORKING PARTY

ESCAPE 30 is promoted by the Working Party: Computer Aided Process Engineering, of th eEuropean Federation of Chemical Engineering.
The Working Party was established in 1966, under the Chairmanship of Professor H. Brusset and with the title “Programmes de Calculs de Routines et Emploi des Ordinateurs Electroniques”.
The Working Party prosecuted the activities under the name “The Use of Computers in Chemical Engineering” up to 1991 and, then, changed its name in “Computer Aided Process Engineering”, CAPE, as still today is intended the European Community of process systems engineering.

EFCE: THE EUROPERAN FEDERATION OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

Founded in 1953, the EFCE currently comprises 38 Member Societies in 29 European countries.
The Federation also works with Institutional Members from around the globe.
In December 2014, the EFCE was officially set up and registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in the UK.
Its Working Parties and Sections link almost 1000 experts from industry and academia.
The Federation's activities are determined by the Executive Board (charity trustees), while three General Secretariats share the different administrative tasks.
Currently there are 20 Working Parties (WPs) and 5 Sections whose delegates and representatives come from 39 member societies representing 33 member countries. Today the EFCE represents more than 100,000 chemical engineers in Europe.

The Federation is a non-profit association, the object of which is to promote co-operation in Europe between non-profit-making professional scientific and technical societies, for the general advancement of chemical engineering and as a means of furthering the development of chemical engineering.

ESCAPE30 ORGANIZER

AIDIC: THE ITALIAN ASSOCIATION OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

AIDIC is the unique Italian Association of Chemical Engineering. Founded in Milano in 1958, AIDIC is an Association of Individuals, supported by Industry: its President is an active industrialist and the main engineering companies are represented into its Executive Board.

AIDIC is member Society of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering since 1962 and for more than 40 years has been represented into EFCE Boards. AIDIC is also member of European Society of Biochemical Engineering Sciences.
AIDIC leads several partnerships with other important Italian Associations.

AIDIC activities are planned by the Executive Board and approved by the General Assembly, while six Regional Agencies share the different administrative tasks all over the national territory.
Currently there are 8 Working Parties and 8 Scientific Sections that dissiminate the scientific activity in the Country.
