Introduction
In the past two decades, Flow Chemistry has grown from an academic curiosity to a mature science domain with applications ranging from pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals to highly innovative materials.
To further drive this evolution forward, the Flow Chemistry Society organises their 6th European Conference with the aim to unite and represent those who are actively working on this rapidly developing field.
The Flow Chemistry Society is dedicated to the integration of Flow Chemistry into everyday practice, by delivering the latest knowledge and making it available for the entire chemistry community. Contributions from academia as well as industry make this conference unique and a must for those who are interested in this exciting field. In addition, the symposium provides excellent networking opportunities to meet the people behind the research and the industrial applications.
Conference topics and theme
The Conference and associated Vendor Exhibition cover the latest technological advances and associated services within the field of Flow Chemistry and microreactor technology. Several topics will be discussed during the different sessions:
Controlling multisteps
Devices – 3D printing
Flow based NMR
Flow based PAT
Invention of new chemical processes in flow
Lab of the future
Reactor design
Process design.

Venue
The conference takes place at the award winning conference centre, Cripps Court, which forms part of Magdalene College, Cambridge, UK.
Cambridge is located in the heart of East Anglia, it is very accessible by air, road and rail. The conference centre is situated very centrally, a short walk from the hustle and bustle of the historic market place and the beautiful architecture and majestic buildings that form Cambridge University.
So let us kill two birds with one stone… during the day we will share some excellent talks by recognized researchers in the field of flow chemistry and during the evening and night we will enjoy the different facets of this fantastic city.
