The multi-day event covers diverse tracks, including 'The Owner's Playbook', 'Prefabrication and Facilities', 'Building Information and Digital Workflows', and many more.

As time progresses and construction technology advances, the importance of data and computer modelling in sustainable design continues to grow.A few years ago, we had only very basic computer modelling to help us understand what to expect from a building’s energy performance.

These days, additional layers of data are being added in, so that our design decisions are really being driven by data now.This enables us to make better, sustainable design choices, and to improve a building’s performance right from the start.We look at issues such as the material choice for a building’s facade and structure, as well as energy performance and thermal comfort.

These are evaluated with respect to the passing of time.What will happen year on year, and at the end of a building’s life?.

Embodied carbon in sustainable building design.

One of the core issues we’re trying to tackle with sustainable design revolves around carbon.The episode highlights the transformative research and development in small molecule Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, emphasising the generation of new, more complex, and targeted molecules.

This revolution is pivotal for advancing the mainstay of essential medicines globally.. 2.Challenges in traditional manufacturing:.

Adrian La Porta discusses the limitations of current manufacturing practices, particularly batch chemistry, in meeting the modern demands for higher volumes, complex products, and faster production at lower costs, all while minimising environmental impact.He points out the inefficiencies and hazards of scaling up production using traditional methods.. 3.
