On behalf of the ISHPMIE international and local organizing committees, we sincerely invite you to attend the 12th International Symposium on Hazards, Prevention, and Mitigation of Industrial Explosions in Kansas City, MO, USA, August 12-17, 2018. The 12th ISHPMIE will be hosted by Fike Corporation, located in Blue Springs, MO, USA. The symposium provides a valuable opportunity for scientists, researchers, engineers, and industrial explosion hazards specialists to meet and exchange ideas and technologies for controlling accidental explosion hazards.
The International Symposium on Hazards, Prevention, and Mitigation of Industrial Explosions (ISHPMIE) was started from the first symposium in Bergen, Norway (1996). It was established by incorporating the Seventh International Colloquium on Dust Explosions and the Second Colloquium on Gas, Vapor, Liquid, Hybrid and Fuel-Air Explosions. The symposium continued with the second symposium in Schaumburg, USA (1998), the third in Tsukuba, Japan (2000), the fourth in Bourges, France (2002), the fifth in Cracow, Poland (2004), the sixth in Halifax, Canada (2006), the seventh in St. Petersburg, Russia (2008), the eighth in Yokohama Japan (2010), the ninth in Cracow, Poland (2012), the tenth in Bergen, Norway (2014) and the eleventh in Dalian, China (2016).
We hope to see you in Kansas City in August 2018!
Sincerely,
Local Organizing Committee
