The Future Of Bio-Based Chemicals – Inception To Marketplace ( All Day )
Dear Delegate, We invite you to join fellow environmental change leaders, policy-makers, and investors at our upcoming The Future of Bio-Based Chemicals – Inception to Marketplace conference on Sept. 13-14, 2010 in San Francisco, CA. The Bio-Based Chemical sector continues to gain recognition from large corporations, government officials, and consumers as a viable source of increased production of renewable chemicals, future job growth, small business development and stronger environmental awareness. Join us for two-days of essential, timely, and informed presentations and panels addressing new technologies, investment trends, and updates on two feedstocks that continue to garner tremendous attention – Algae and Woody-Mass. In addition, discussions on future synergy among the bio-sectors, bio-refinery partnerships with petrol-refineries and ethanol plants, and updates on government policy will be included. Don’t miss this special opportunity to share ideas, develop partnerships, and network with key start-ups, traditional oil-based companies, feedstock suppliers and investors passionate about continued growth and business development in the Bio-Based Chemical industry. We look forward to meeting you in San Francisco in September. Best regards, GTCbio Conference Team

2nd Annual Probe Discovery Conference And Exhibition In Washington DC, USA ( 9:00 am )
The word "probe" is a broad term which can be interpreted to mean any one of a wide variety of agents. These include active chemistries discovered in academic screening labs or in government (MLPCN or the NIH), commercially available probes (i.e. dyes, antibodies, fluorescent proteins), failed drug candidates from Pharma, whole body or cellular imaging agents, specific biomarkers or tool molecules from chemogenomics and/or systems biology efforts.
The goal of this conference is to bring all of the various incarnations of probe hunters together to share experience and network to a common purpose.
The conference will be co-located with Ion Channel Targets. Registered delegates will have access to both meetings ensuring a very cost-effective trip.
Agenda Topics
- Failed Drug Candidates as Probes
- Dyes, Antibodies and Fluorescent Proteins
- Whole Body or Cellular Imaging Agents
- Tool Molecules from Chemogenomics
- Innovative Assay Technologies for Probe Discovery

Secrets Of Batch Process Scale-Up In Radisson Blu, Nice, France ( 9:00 am )
Ensuring Effective Translation of Laboratory Processes to Pilot Plant Scale
Course Aims & Objectives
To teach the practical aspects of designing a scaleable fine-chemical batch process and successfully implementing it at the kilo-lab and pilot plant scale, through an examination of the effects of large-scale operating methods and equipment limitations on process safety, operability, yield, selectivity and product quality.
About this course
Operating a commercially viable chemical process requires a good chemical synthesis to start with, but is also subject to the interplay of a myriad of important physical phenomena – heat transfer, mass transfer, fluid flow, etc. which are traditionally the realm of the chemical engineer. An understanding of these scale-up phenomena is crucial for the laboratory development of processes that will scale successfully.
This course presents an overview of these issues and examines their impact on process operation in the pilot plant and beyond, including scale-up considerations for route selection, raw material charging, reaction steps, workup, crystallization, product isolation, drying, etc. Common bench techniques for each of these steps are contrasted to the safety and operability criteria for successful pilot plant operation. Numerous examples and case histories are presented, along with tips and techniques for operators and experimenters. Heavy emphasis is placed on process safety.
An underlying goal of the course is improving communication and mutual understanding between development team members of different backgrounds; thus, the course is appropriate for synthetic chemists, process development chemists and process engineers with limited pilot plant experience who wish to learn more about the potential pitfalls of scale-up in process development. The course complements the more chemistry-focused Scientific Update course “Chemical Development and Scale-Up in the Fine Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industries”.
Upon completion of the course, participants will be better equipped to:
- Assess process safety and scaleability
- Identify process operations that may be problematic on scale-up
- Design processes that will minimize or avoid scale-up issues
- Select operating methods and equipment for effective scale-up
- Calculate heat removal rates and safe rates of addition of reagents
- Determine mixing requirements for scale-up
- Design crystallizations which can be successfully operated at scale
- Predict the filterability of solid products upon scale-up
- Minimize the effects of scale-up on yield, selectivity and product purity
