Opening
Hall 4.0, Room Europa
The process industry is facing many challenges. The decades-long trend towards greater globalisation is currently being replaced by increasing instability and, in some cases, protectionist tendencies in trade policy. Meanwhile, the shift towards greater sustainability, the development of the hydrogen economy and the endeavour to secure raw materials require new global networks.
Federal Minister of Economics Dr Robert Habeck opens this year's ACHEMA.
10 – 14 June 2024
Hall 12.0, Stand A33
Data from all lines of research and production come together in the laboratory. Modularly designed and fully connected, the digital lab is a data mine for process design and quality control. In various cases, the partners of the action area will demonstrate their cross-manufacturer solutions for the networked and digitalised laboratory with the help of innovative products and software. Experience the latest developments at ACHEMA 2024!

Hall 11.1, Stand A5
This year, the final of the AIRA Robotics Challenge will once again be part of ACHEMA, pushing the boundaries of robotics and promoting innovation. The focus this time shifts to teleoperation, i. e. the use of systems that enable remote control and herald a new era where machines effortlessly perform tasks to assist people in their everyday tasks.
10 – 14 June 2024
Hall 11.0, Stand A43
ARC Advisory Group, NAMUR and ZVEI are once again organizing a joint forum at ACHEMA under the name “Automation in Dialogue”. On all five days of the exhibition there will be varied lectures and discussions on the important topics of automation technology in the process industry.
On Tuesday topics such as Flexibility & Interoperability are the focus. Wednesday will be all about Advanced Physical Layer (APL). On Thursday, the topic will be Data Spaces & Sustainability. The Monday of the trade show and the conclusion on Friday will offer important cross-sectional topics such as Safety & Digitalisation.
10 – 14 June 2024
Hall 12.0, Stand E70
The Scientific Equipment and Furniture Association (SEFA) is organising “The SEFA Theatre” in Hall 12.0 at ACHEMA 2024. SEFA is an international trade association with more than 160 members from almost 30 countries. Its members are the leading manufacturers, architects and laboratory planners with the expertise to design, furnish and equip the safest laboratory buildings in the world. SEFA’s main task is to create “Laboratory Grade” standards for the laboratory furniture and equipment manufactured by its members.

The value and reliability of scientific data in biology and translational science is determined by the quality of chemical tools and their appropriate use. Well-characterised, selective small molecules are essential for understanding the cellular functions of proteins and validating them as drug targets. Conversely, the use of poorly evaluated molecules or the biased interpretation of data generated with promiscuous substances leads to pollution of the literature with unsubstantiated claims.
The ELRIG Drug Discovery in Germany forum will focus on data quality generated with small molecules and present best practices and guidelines for the use, availability and characterisation of these tools using state-of-the-art methods. We will highlight examples with both traditional inhibitors and novel chemical modalities, such as PROTACs. The meeting will bring together approaches from industry and academia, working together to improve the reproducibility and robustness of scientific data, thereby advancing target validation and our understanding of target biology.

Hall 8.1, Symmetrie 3
Plant engineers are systemically relevant – not least in strengthening Germany as a production location in times of economic challenges in the chemical industry. They guarantee smooth work processes and bear great responsibility for their plant and safe and clean production with the best possible plant availability. They also guarantee the production of important products in the chemical industry with a wide range of applications, e. g. to combat the pandemic or implement the energy transition. After all, manufacturing substances and components for renewable energies would not work without plant engineers – true to the motto “Nothing works without us”.
