The Global Science Conference (GSC) is the unique venue to present and discuss scientific developments related to the production of renewable, recycled and sustainable liquid gases.
Liquid Gas Week 2026 in Istanbul will host the fourth GSC, bringing together research scientists from both academia and industry around the world.
As the only global conference devoted exclusively to scientific developments relevant to the production of renewable Liquid Gas, LPG and DME, the GSC is the ultimate stage for discussing early-stage research and scientific breakthroughs relevant to the industry and the wider academic community.
The fourth Global Science Conference will take stage on Friday 16th October 2026 during Liquid Gas Week in Istanbul.
As an integral part of Liquid Gas Week, GSC2026 will take stage in Istanbul on Friday 16th October 2026.
This unique conference is exclusively dedicated to scientific breakthroughs in renewable Liquid Gas, LPG, and DME. GSC serves as the ultimate platform for unveiling early-stage research, exploring emerging technologies, and shaping the future of sustainable energy.
Bringing the Liquid Gas industry together, represented by all its stakeholders, from research entities to academic partners, fuel producing companies to equipment manufacturers, fuel distributors as well as the entire Liquid Gas supply distribution chain and beyond, the GSC event is a must-attend event.
Topics for the GSC will focus on pathways to renewable, recycled and sustainable liquid gases, with a focus on LPG and Dimethyl Ether (DME).
Papers on any topics would be expected to include catalytic or biological pathways where propane, butane, isobutane, dimethyl ether could ultimately be synthesised. Upstream feedstock supply and availability, or routes to key intermediates (renewable methanol, bioethanol etc.) together with life cycle analysis would also be considered relevant.
All accepted papers and presenters will receive unbeatable visibility and exposure, including:
- Presentation during GSC2026
- Opportunity to compete for the GSC Innovation Awards
- Full Liquid Gas Week waived access for oral presenters
- Participation grands for accepted university institutions papers
- Inclusion in poster display at Liquid Gas Week 2026
- Great exposure and visibility via all Liquid Gas Week communication channels
The GSC is particularly important for academics who are seeking industrial partners to support on-going research efforts. All Liquid Gas Week attendees have a complimentary invitation to attend.
Submission is easy, free and OPEN for the Global Science Conference 2026.
The submission form together, with all other details, can be simply downloaded here and submitted by e-mail. Follow the instructions in the form.
GSC2026 Important Dates
The WLGA Global Science Conference award will be given to the most outstanding scientific contribution.
An additional award will also honour contributions from an early-stage researcher (under 35 on the day of the conference).
With a wealth of benefits to the winners, this is your opportunity to showcase a paper and take home the ultimate prize in renewable Liquid Gas production science.
The GSC Awards will be granted to the GSC2026 winners chosen from the papers that will be presented during Liquid Gas Week 2026. The countdown to GSC2026 is on!
Congratulations again to GTI Energy who won the Global Science Conference with their innovative paper on renewable LPG production using CO₂ and hydrogen.
