29 January 2016
CIMAC issued an announcement and invitation to the 28th CIMAC World Congress—one of the most important international events in the field of Large Diesel and Gas Engines—that will take place from 6 to 10 June 2016 in Helsinki, Finland.
The engine industry will be in Helsinki to review and discuss technical, environmental and regulatory trends, developments, opportunities and challenges. More than 1,000 experts of the large engines industry including engineers, developers, professors and scientists, ship owners, power station and rail operators, oil companies and suppliers from all over the world will be present at the event.
A traditional value of the CIMAC Congress has always been the high technical level of the sessions. The five-day Congress will offer state-of-the-art information on engine technology and engine applications. The CIMAC Congress will also feature an exhibition floor where companies and institutes can present their latest technologies and products, along with social evenings and technical visits.
The high-quality technical papers to be presented will focusing on all aspects of the energy conversion process as well as the user’s experience with engines and plants in operation. Some of the important areas to be addressed at the event include Product Development with Diesel, Gas and Dual Fuel Engines, Emissions Control and Exhaust Gas Aftertreatment, Turbochargers & Air/Exhaust Management, System Integration & Optimization as well as Users’ Aspects, Maintenance & Monitoring for various applications among others.
As the Congress aims to address the current trends in the industry, one of the most interesting topics that will be discoursed during the event is the area of System Integration. The underlying fundamental question is how to increase the overall efficiency and performance of ships and other large engine applications through a holistic approach, which takes into account the entire powertrain and focuses on comprehensive system engineering solutions.
Founded in Paris in 1951, CIMAC has become the leading global association of the internal combustion machinery industry. It is a non-profit association bringing together and representing the large engine industry to regulators and standardizing bodies.
