18th European Conference on Mixing (Mixing 18)


Join us in Ireland for MIXING18, organised under the auspices of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering (EFCE). Every three years, global leaders from academia and industry meet to share breakthroughs in mixing for the chemical, pharma, food, biotech and energy sectors.

Theme: SMARTER MIXING – for More Sustainable Processes and Products
Innovative research and practical solutions advancing climate goals, digitalisation and circular manufacturing.

What to expect

  • High-level keynotes and technical sessions (single-track flow)
  • Interactive poster sessions & industry showcases
  • Young researcher awards & targeted networking
  • A lively social programme

Whether you’re developing advanced bioreactors, optimising green chemistry, or building digital twins, MIXING18 is where ideas connect and scale—on the lush riverside campus of the University of Limerick, set along the River Shannon.

Mixing drives innovation—from efficient reactors and sustainable manufacturing to life-saving vaccines. At MIXING18 we focus on the models, technologies and applications that make processes cleaner, smarter and future-ready.

Beyond the programme, experience Ireland: dramatic coasts, warm pubs and memorable moments—think a Cliffs of Moher excursion and evenings with traditional music.
