The International Conferences on Gas-Liquid and Gas-Liquid-
Solid Reactor Engineering (popularly known as the GLS
conference amongst professionals in the field) were
initiated in 1992 and proposed to cover science &
technologies of two-phase and three-phase flows in process
vessels, new techniques of experimentation, modeling &
simulation, and other innovations that are likely to
address the needs of the chemical process, refining and
fertilizer industries in the coming decades. Following the
success of the seven previous GLS congress, the eighth
conference with same theme is proposed in New Delhi, India
from 16th-19th December 2007, under the chairmanship of
Professor K. D. P. Nigam of Indian Institute of Technology
Delhi.
The Organizing Committee invites original contributions
attributed to any aspect of theory and applications of Gas-
Liquid and Gas-Liquid-Solid reactor engineering for
submission to GLS-8, the 8th International Conference on
Gas-Liquid and Gas-Liquid-Solid Reactor Engineering. The
conference will focus on some areas of topical interest,
in keeping with what has been covered in GLS-7 and what
the Organizing Committee deems important in the future.
Topics of Interest include:
(1) Gas-Liquid and Gas-Liquid-Solid Transport Phenomena
(2) Classical Multiphase Reactors: Packed and Trickle
Beds, Bubble Columns, Three Phase Slurry and Fluidized Bed
Reactors, Stirred Tank Reactors etc.
(3) Multiphase Computational Fluid Dynamics & Multi-Scale
Modeling in Multiphase Chemical Reactor Engineering,
Microfluidics
(4) Heat & Mass Transfer in Multiphase Systems
(5) Bioreactor Engineering for Multiphase Systems
(6) Process Intensification and its Consequences on
Multiphase (G-L & G-L-S) Reactors
(7) Measurement and Flow Visualization Techniques for
Multiphase Systems
(8) Multiphase Interfacial Engineering
(9) Applications in Environmental, Chemical or Hydrocarbon
processing, Mineralogy, and Process Metallurgy
