The aim of this congress, as with previous ones, is to provide a dynamic and inclusive forum for both Iranian and international researchers from all disciplines of chemical engineering to present their latest scientific findings, share innovative ideas, and foster collaboration on recent advancements in the field.

In addition to showcasing research, IChEC 2026 seeks to:

• Promote knowledge exchange among professionals, scholars, and students from diverse sectors of chemical engineering.
• Encourage interdisciplinary dialogue to address grand challenges in areas such as sustainability, energy, biotechnology, materials, and process engineering.
• Support innovation and commercialization by providing a platform where academic insights can meet industrial applications.
• Assess educational and research priorities within the chemical engineering community, particularly in response to the rapidly evolving global technological landscape.
• Strengthen international collaboration by creating opportunities for joint research, exchange programs, and academic–industry partnerships.
• Enhance professional development, especially for early-career researchers and students, through workshops, technical sessions, and networking opportunities.

Through these goals, IChEC 2026 aims to contribute meaningfully to the advancement of both local and global chemical engineering knowledge and its application to     real-world challenges.
