In October 1997, the European Academy of Engineering (EAE) continued to push the boundaries of chemical engineering while keeping environmental concerns at the forefront of its agenda. With growing awareness of environmental issues, EAE recognized the vital role of chemical engineering in creating sustainable and eco-friendly solutions.
 
EAE's initiatives in this field explored cleaner manufacturing processes, green chemistry, and technologies for minimizing the environmental footprint of chemical industries. Engineers and experts collaborated to develop innovative approaches that aligned with the principles of environmental stewardship.
 
As the demand for sustainable practices in chemical engineering increased, EAE's efforts aimed to drive change, enhance environmental protection, and promote responsible industry practices.
