Research Triangle Park, NC (21 January 2010) – The International Society of Automation announces that it will host the 55th Analysis Division Symposium 26-29 April 2010 at the Astor Crowne Plaza in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. This year's theme, “Analytical Solutions in a Not So ‘Big Easy’ Economic Environment,” covers process analysis topics ranging from methods and applications to compliance, system operation, and maintenance. The event is sponsored by the ISA Analysis Division.

Formal published papers, informal reports, short courses, ISA training, speaker sessions, and panel discussions will focus on technology used in industry practice, as well as new technology currently in development. Chemical analyzers, validation, system integration, and analytical hardware and software are all featured topics for the conference presentations.

The three full conference days of the event offer attendees Professional Development Hours (PDHs). In addition, the ISA training course, “Advances in Continuous Emission Monitoring,” will offer Continuing Education Units (CEUs). An Analysis Division training course, “Fundamentals of Process Analyzer Techniques,” is also a part of the program. Other highlights include vendor exhibits, a networking reception each night, and more. 

The symposium is endorsed by the Center for Process Analytical Chemistry, the Federation of Analytical Chemistry and Spectroscopy Societies, the Measurement & Control Engineering Center, the Air & Waste Management Association, and the US Environmental Protection Agency.
