At Delft, he did an extensive study of the energy efficiency of the polyolefin industry, for which activity DSM acted as host. After 12 years at ExxonMobil he joined SABIC where he worked on a variety of technology developments, circular economy, and energy transition. He is currently leading Digital Transformation for the technology organization and is based in Houston, Texas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.77 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 27, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48634802569465,"sku":"9781032303017","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/oybGsB-w_59781032303017.webp?v=1783210817","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/efficiency-and-sustainability-in-the-energy-and-chemical-industries-scientific-principles-and-case-studies-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
