WELCOME FROM THE PRESIDENT
Dear Colleagues:
On behalf of AIChE®’s Board of Directors, welcome to Houston and the 2023 AIChE Spring Meeting and
19th Global Congress on Process Safety (GCPS). We are pleased that you’ve joined us for this year’s
exploration of the state of chemical engineering technology — highlighting the latest developments in our
rapidly advancing fields of practice.
The theme we’ve chosen for our meeting — Embracing the Future of Chemical Engineering — is in keeping
with our recent programming emphasis on the evolution of the profession as it responds to emerging
global needs. This transformation, and the new opportunities it brings, is showcased in one of our new
topical conferences, devoted to the energy transition.
Our Spring Meeting program also spotlights chemical engineers as leaders of next-generation manufacturing, incorporating
perspectives on Industry 4.0, A.I, data analytics, process intensification, and other topics. The program gives consideration to new
technologies in clean energy and wastewater management. Other highlights include the 35th Ethylene Producers’ Conference
and the return of the Kister Distillation Symposium. Additional topical conferences delve into gas utilization, refinery processing,
hydrogen safety, plastics circularity, and professional-skills development. We have also devoted sessions to strengthen our
profession by working toward a fully equitable and inclusive workforce.
Setting the stage for it all on Monday morning, Michael Graff (American Air Liquide) presents the AIChE Government and Industry
Leaders (AGILE) keynote on how the chemical engineering profession is inventing the future.
Kicking off the Fuels and Petrochemicals Division’s programming is a plenary co-hosted with the Industry 4.0 Topical Conference.
This plenary features a talk by Jens Schmidt (TES-H2) who will discuss the ways that digitalization is accelerating progress
in green hydrogen. Then, at the Ethylene Producers’ Conference, Sarah Marshall (NOVA Chemical) presents a keynote on
“Developing a Road Map to Net Zero” in the energy transition.
AIChE’s Center for Process Safety (CCPS) and the Safety and Health Division organize the Global Congress on Process Safety
(GCPS), which begins on Monday with a plenary session and a keynote presented by Chris Tagoe (LyondellBasell). He will discuss
process safety culture as a value “by the power of many.” This year, the 25th Process Plant Safety Symposium includes a selection
of big-data success stories applied to process safety management (PSM). In addition to the CCPS International Conference and a
track devoted to loss prevention, PSM mentoring is highlighted, featuring a panel on inclusivity in the PSM workforce. The GCPS
program will present Perspectives on Process Safety from Around the Globe, and conclude with our process safety Case Studies
and Lessons Learned sessions.
Ticket holders can look forward to daily luncheons — where invited speakers will expand on some of our meeting’s main themes.
At Monday’s luncheon, David Yankovitz (Deloitte) will deliver perspectives on the sustainable use of materials. On Tuesday, our
speaker is Gayle Schueller (3M), who will describe how science, collaboration, and a sense of urgency can help achieve ESG
goals. Then, on Wednesday, we welcome Rodney Reed (Harris County [Texas] Fire Marshal’s Office), who will discuss emergency
response planning.
Those are only a few of the featured events on tap. To keep track of it all, you should download the AIChEvents app to your mobile
device, where you can maintain a personal schedule and receive program updates. Also, be sure to visit with our exhibitors and
make some new connections at our receptions, poster sessions, and other networking events.
While visiting the exhibits, stop by the AIChE Foundation’s Doing a World of Good Lounge — and please consider making a
philanthropic contribution to support the great work and transformative initiatives of the Foundation.
AIChE continues to work with its meeting venues and stakeholders to promote a safe, healthful, and inclusive meeting
environment. Please be cognizant of our meeting code of conduct posted on the meeting homepage and throughout the Meeting.
AIChE gratefully acknowledges our Spring Meeting Program Chairs — Cristina Thomas of 3M and Tony Cai of Fractionation
Research, Inc. — and the GCPS Chair, John Champion of Dow. The Institute thanks the meeting’s sponsor organizations and
exhibitors for their generosity and participation at this meeting.
Finally, we extend our thanks to the session chairs, presenters, authors, and volunteers for their indispensable contributions and
their dedication to AIChE and the advancement of our communal objectives.
Thank you for being a part of our conference.
Best wishes,
Billy B. Bardin

SKILLING UP TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY
3:30 PM - 5:00 PM | Hilton Americas 340AB
Presenters: Chris Cogswell, Elsevier
In tIf you ask most engineering companies today making the transition towards sustainable engineering is a strategic
goal in the years ahead. But if you ask employees at those same companies what that means for them, they have no clear
idea. In this workshop we will discuss ways employees can take their own steps to gain the skills to become a part of that
sustainability transition, and ensure they are ready for when their company makes that change.

HOW ARE YOU MANAGING RISK TODAY AND IN THE FUTURE?
Tuesday, March 14, 2023: 8:00 AM-9:30 AM, Hilton Americas 338
Presenter: Mark Breese, Yokogawa RAP, SWANSEA, United Kingdom
Risk Assessments are fundamental to managing and mitigating risks and hazards and therefore enabling a safe and effective
workplace environment for your workforce and contractors. Traditional risk management techniques are being augmented with
technologies which utilize historic process knowledge to create a more predictive and dynamic mitigation strategy. Additionally,
organizations are exploring the use of robotics to reduce the likelihood of exposure for operations personnel. All companies
considering integrating robotics technology into their facilities should be accustomed with the risk assessment process.
AI PROCESS OPTIMIZATION FOR REFINERIES AND PETROCHEMICAL PLANTS
Tuesday, March 14, 2023: 8:00 AM-9:30 AM | Hilton Americas 335A
