The American Chemical Society's (ACS) Green Chemistry Institute (ACS GCI) is organising the 15th Annual Green Chemistry & Engineering Conference. The event is scheduled for June 21-23, 2011, at the Capital Hilton Hotel, Washington, D.C. ACS GCI claims to be a world leader in advocating for the implementation of green chemistry and engineering into all aspects of the global chemical enterprise.
This year's conference, an official International Year of Chemistry (IYC) 2011 event, will be held in partnership with the 5th International Conference on Green and Sustainable Chemistry. With the theme of 'Global Challenges: Green Chemistry Solutions,' the conference will feature more than 340 presentations focusing on more than 20 areas enhanced by green chemistry and green engineering solutions.
In 2010, the conference attracted nearly 500 attendees from 17 countries around the globe.
On June 20, 2011, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will announce the winners of the 2011 Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Awards. This award was established to recognize and promote innovative chemical technologies that prevent pollution and have broad applicability in industry.
