3rd World Congress on Emulsions: From Fundamentals to Industrial Applications, 24–27 September 2002, Lyon, France

This congress is designed to advance exchanges between researchers, scientists, and engineers from all the different industries around the common theme of emulsions, and to encourage the transfer of technologies and fundamental knowledge in this field.

Emulsion is perceived in different ways by different industries. For the pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and food industries, emulsion is an intermediate product. For the paint industry, it is a raw material; in the road industry, it is the finished product. Similarly, the notion of formulation can be perceived in different ways; to some it means defining the dosage of products entering into the composition of emulsion, while to others, it means manufacturing a final product based on emulsion.

To satisfy the expectations of these different industries, this congress will corroborate the orientation toward applications, while paying due consideration to the contributions of fundamental research of academica. Formulation, application, and processing of emulsion will be part of the scientific content of this congress, which will also take into account loaded emulsions and mixed disperse systems. A more important role will be reserved for process engineering and for manufacturing equipment and measurement tools.

The four main themes of the congresss will focus on:

  • formulation, preparation, and characterization of emulsions

  • process engineering

  • emulsion behavior in use

  • industrial applications, case histories, new developments, and new constraints

As with the previous successful congresses in Paris in 1993 and in Bordeaux in 1997 (more than 1 000 participants from over 60 countries with 250 papers selected and published), this 3 rd congress will feature an exhibition as well as a poster area where delegates, can meet and different industries can demonstrate their most recent developments.
