Nov 12, 2008 - Nov 14, 2008,
Messe Frankfurt, Frankfurt am Main, Hessen Germany“Everlasting Cycles”: “How Waste becomes Food”
Nutec: Nutrients - Upcycling - Triple-Top-Line - Eco-effectiveness - Community
Can products and materials be healthy for humans and the environment, combine functionality and aesthetics, be produced with fairness in every aspect – and be economically successful at the same time?
The answer is: yes. Products of consumption and products of service can be conceived by intelligent product design right from the beginning in such a way that their material contents are beneficial, safe and profitable. Thus, products and materials can circulate as either “technical” or biological nutrients in cycles and be re-used – nearly indefinitely!
This fundamentally new approach to the production of ecologically-intelligent materials leads to a comprehensive product quality, and allows nearly 100% re-use of all material contents. No more should valuable materials at the end of their lifetime end up in landfills, be incinerated or recycled into those of a lower quality. - full details

- Carbon Capture and Storage
-
Nov 12, 2008 - Nov 12, 2008,
IMechE, 1 Birdcage Walk, London, England, United KingdomCarbon Capture and Storage is the most exciting proposition for reducing emissions and tackling climate change across a broad range of industries. Institute members throughout the world are working on challenging R&D projects to bring the technology into commercial reality. In order for the technology to develop engineers need to take the lead in ensuring the public accept this emerging technology by addressing key issues with carbon dioxide capture, transmission and sub surface sequestration.
The aim of this seminar is to explore the technologies available to design power plants for carbon capture, the technologies for the capture process itself and the provisions will allow carbon capture to be installed at a later date, transportation options for carbon dioxide and the technology and options for storage of carbon dioxide.
The seminar will provide engineers with an appreciation of the latest developments and technology associated with carbon capture and storage as well as areas where further development is required. - full details
- Risk, Regulation & Compliance 2008
-
Nov 12, 2008 - Nov 14, 2008,
The Grove, Hertfordshire, England, United KingdomThe costs of mitigating risk and meeting compliance regulations such as Basel II and Sarbanes-Oxley, has been immense. In particular, 2007 represents a challenge as both Basel II and Europe’s Markets in Financial Instruments directive, MiFID, hit the streets. MiFID is but one of the 42 directives changing the face of Europe through the financial services action plan. With the single payment market being another major hurdle to overcome. In addition there’s the Giovannini’s 15 barriers to creating an integrated securities market, the UK’s Treating Customers fairly from the FSA and so many more.
The key purpose of RRC 2008 is to demonstrate through an up-to-the-minute and expert seminar programme how investment in technology can be regarded not as a cost but, through best execution, as a way of adding value and achieving optimal ROI and competitive advantage across an enterprise. There will also be the opportunity to network and attend one-one-one meetings with the most innovative solutions providers.
Delegates attending will include senior executives and industry leaders from exchanges, universal banks, investment banks, asset management firms, hedge/mutual funds and broker/dealers (securities firms) and insurance companies. - full details

Prague, Czech RepublicGlobal demand for thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) is forecast to increase 6.3% per year through 2011 to 3.7 million metric tonnes, according to The Freedonia Group. Although global TPE sales will remain concentrated in the developed markets of the US, Western Europe and Japan, particularly for high performance materials such as copolyesters (COPEs) and thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs), growth prospects through 2011 will be strongest in developing countries where markets have initially focused on low cost styrenic block copolymers (SBCs). China is forecast to expand its share of the world market from under 30% in 2006 to over 33% in 2011, and is significantly diversifying into thermoplastic polyolefins (TPOs) and thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs).
The TPE market continues to go from strength to strength, and with this in mind, Smithers Rapra is pleased to announce the eleventh international thermoplastic elastomers conference, to take place in Prague, Czech Republic from 12-13 November 2008. - full details

The special, three-day executive forum entitled “Post-Approval Drug Safety Strategies: Best Practices to Assess and Mitigate Risks throughout the Product’s Life Cycle” will tackle many of the pressing issues that executives are facing today. Topics include:
* Implementing programs that increase the probability of timely approval and mitigate safety risks

* Integrating drug safety knowledge longitudinally across a compound's lifecycle
* Optimizing the allocation of an organization's drug safety assessment resources
* Understanding regulatory authorities' evolving drug safety risk management expectations

- 6th IEEE European Conference on Web Services (ECOWS '08)
-
Nov 12, 2008 - Nov 14, 2008,
Dublin City University Dublin IrelandThe European Conference on Web Services (ECOWS) is the premier conference for both researchers and practitioners to exchange the latest advances in the state of the art and practices of Web Services.
The main objectives of this conference are to facilitate the exchange between researchers and practitioners and to foster future collaborations in Europe and beyond.
The success encountered by the Web has shown that tightly coupled software systems are only good for niche markets, whereas loosely coupled software systems can be more flexible, more adaptive and often more appropriate in practice. Loose coupling makes it easier for a given system to interact with other systems, possibly legacy systems that share very little with it.
Web services are at the crossing of distributed computing and loosely coupled systems. When applications adopt service-oriented architectures, they can evolve during their lifespan more easily and better adapt to changing or unpredictable environments. When properly implemented, services can be discovered and invoked dynamically using non-proprietary mechanisms, while each service can still be implemented in a black-box manner. This is important from a business perspective since each service can be implemented using any technology, independently of the others. What matters is that everybody agrees on the integration technology, and there is a consensus about this in today’s middleware market: customers want to use Web technologies. Despite these promises, however, service integrators, developers, and providers need to create methods tools and techniques to support cost-effective development and the use of dependable services and service-oriented applications. - full details
