From 14 to 17 March 2010 in the astonishing scenario of Florence the fourth International Conference on Safety and Environment in the Process Industry (CISAP4) will be held, thus giving continuation to the permanent biennial forum in the Italian country on HSE topics as well as industrial sustainability.
As in the past events, the principal aim of the Conference is to help the process industries to find out the best balance between the expected growth of the enterprise value and the safeguard of the health of employees and population, the safety of operations, the environmental protection.
I hope that this conference could provide both the platform for bringing together operators, researchers, consultants involved worldwide in optimizing the Safety and Environmental science and engineering and the opportunity for participants to learn about the latest developments, to improve communication and to increase cooperation and coordination among all the actors.
