34th European Symposium on Applied Thermodynamics - ESAT 2026

The 34th European Symposium on Applied Thermodynamics (ESAT 2026) is the oldest and most renowned conference on Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics, a landmark event in the field since its first edition in 1974. In 2026, the symposium celebrates its 3rd edition in Portugal and its very first in the historic city of Lisbon.

The conference program is designed to offer a diverse and enriching experience for attendees, covering research topics in scientific areas such as chemical engineering thermodynamics, molecular modeling, phase equilibria, and innovative thermodynamic applications in energy and sustainable processes.

The program includes Plenary Lectures, providing a platform for world-class researchers to share their findings and strategic insights with a wide international audience. These sessions are scheduled to open and close the scientific program, offering keynote talks from distinguished experts in the field during both morning and afternoon sessions.

Invited Lectures complement the symposium by providing context and broader perspectives for the parallel sessions, which feature Contributed Talks given by the conference participants. These sessions create a stimulating environment for researchers to present their work, exchange ideas, and foster new international collaborations. The event also provides a unique opportunity to explore emerging topics in chemical engineering through dedicated technical sessions.

Additionally, the conference hosts a Poster Session, creating opportunities for researchers to present their work visually and engage in direct discussions with their peers. The symposium's legacy and the valuable research presented are documented in the official proceedings, ensuring global reach and accessibility for the scientific community.
