As part of the International Conference “Man and Working Environment” – SEMSIE 2025 Conference, held on September 25–26, Prof. Milan Protić presented key activities and results of the Safety4EU project.
The presentation placed particular emphasis on the application of virtual laboratories based on dynamic process simulation software for simulating and testing different process safety scenarios. Through practical examples, participants were introduced to the ways in which virtual labs contribute to modernizing education, professional training, and preparedness for critical safety events in process industries.
A dedicated session within the conference focused on several important aspects of the Safety4EU project, including an overview of the project objectives and its main pillars, the growing role of IT technologies in workplace and process safety, and the integration of digital tools such as Python, Maple, and AVEVA Process Simulation into academic curricula. The session also included a demonstration of virtual laboratories implemented through the AVEVA software suite.
The conference provided an important opportunity for the exchange of knowledge and experiences with experts and researchers in the fields of occupational and process safety, while also contributing to the wider dissemination and visibility of the Safety4EU project community.
