The Australian bulk and powder handling community’s industry exhibition – – Bulkex 2009 – – running from 4 — 6 August, is filling up quickly.
“It’s great that after a three year break, Bulkex is still recognized as the ‘must attend’ event for companies servicing Australia’s diverse bulk and powder communities,” commented Harvey Stockbridge, sales director, Informa.
“The exhibition will display a huge range of technologies, from the mainstays and staples of the industry, right through to cutting-edge new technologies from around the world.”
Bulkex 2009 is being co-located with two important industry conferences – CHoPS (6th International Conference for Conveying and Handling of Particulate Solids) and ICBMH (10th International Conference on Bulk Materials Storage, Handling & Transportation).
According to Associate Professor Wypych, the overall aim of the combined events is to integrate the scientific and industry communities, with the uniting of the two groups set to throw off some exciting synergies.
“The networking and collaboration opportunities will be tremendous and unprecedented,” said Wypych.
“I firmly believe that the combination of CHOPS, ICBMH and Bulkex will provide a unique opportunity to integrate scientific research and industry issues.
“Academic researchers will come to understand industry’s problems and needs, while the latter group will better grasp the capabilities of the universities and the opportunities presented by their R&D.”
Besides the two major conferences, a host of subsidiary activities – such as workshops, case study sessions; industry seminars and open forums – will foster academic/industry interactions and relationships.
Visitors to the exhibition will have access to a wide range of technical know-how through the Bulkex Academy Sessions.
The exhibitors will also offer product demonstration and displays across the full range of bulk handling expertise.
