International seminar on irradiation in Morocco
Regional-Morocco, Economics, 5/15/2002

The city of Kenitra (40 km north of Rabat) will host this May 25-31 the biannual international colloquy on chemical irradiation, the first time that the conference is held outside Europe and Canada.

Set up in 1978, the colloquy is the most important French-speaking event dealing with latest information and novelties in studies on consequences of ionizing radiation.

The Moroccan center of energy, nuclear techniques and sciences (CNESTEN), which is organizing the conference with the Kenitra university, says it will promote Moroccan industrialists' awareness on economic advantages of irradiation technology, encourage research and consolidate exchanges between academics and industrialists.

Participants will come from France, Canada, Belgium, Switzerland, Portugal, England, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco.

Over 50 Moroccan industrialists will also be participating to debate radio-sterilization techniques of medical, pharmaceutical and cosmetics products, materials irradiation and development of irradiation in the Maghreb region.
