About ICCT

International Conferences on Chemical Thermodynamics (ICCTs) have been held under the auspices of IUPAC since 1969 rotating between Europe, North America, and Asia. The first conference was held in Warsaw (Poland) from August 31 to September 4, 1969 under the name of the 1st International Conference on Calorimetry and Thermodynamics. Now the circle has been closed and the 20^th International Conference on Chemical Thermodynamics will be held also in Warsaw on August 3-8, 2008. The upcoming 20^th ICCT will be organised as the third one (after those in Beijing 2004 and Colorado 2006) under the auspices of the International Association of Chemical Thermodynamics (IACT)
The 20^th ICCT will cover a broad scope of issues related to chemical thermodynamics, both experimental and theoretical. The conference will be opened by two introductory general lectures. One will be devoted to current theoretical problems in chemical thermodynamics as seen from a physicist’s point of view and the other one to recent and prospective industrial applications of chemical thermodynamics.
The scientific programme will host symposia and workshops ranging from classical subjects such as molecular energetics, through ionic liquids and supercritical phase equilibria up to the most recent topics, such as a thermodynamic approach to nanotechnologies and nanodevices and environmental thermodynamics.
The 20^th ICCT will be hosted in a conference centre GROMADA which offers in the same place everything that is needed for a good conference (air conditioned conference facilities, hotel rooms at varied prices, located in a green area near the airport and having good city communication with the downtown of Warsaw).
The host city Warsaw offers a number of interesting things to see, learn and understand, both from an historical and a modern point of view. Come and see places which have association with Chopin and hear his famous music.
