EUROPIC’s mission is to support and accelerate the application of knowledge and technologies in the area of Process Intensification (PI). EUROPIC is the result of the increasing awareness of the importance of PI. It is a unique industry-driven platform, initiated by nine leading European companies.. With headquarters at Delft (Holland), and offices in Dortmund (Germany) and Toulouse (France).
To support and integrate the entire value chain EUROPIC actively connects science and business in innovative application-driven research. EUROPIC creates interfaces between academia, end users, engineering companies and technology providers. The excellent knowledge infrastructure, broad network and complementary expertise of the partners ensure broad coverage of the PI field.
Paying special attention to the quality and reliability of the supplied information, EUROPIC provides its members with unlimited access to the world’s largest PI databases. It performs technology scouting, benchmarking and trend analyses. Furthermore, EUROPIC issues position papers and provides its members with worldwide consulting services, as well as specialized courses and trainings.
