Environmental Sciences

Description:

As the global landscape faces unprecedented environmental, social, and health-related challenges, the field of life sciences must pivot towards innovative solutions and sustainable methodologies. This year's conference theme, "Towards Innovative Resilience and Sustainability," emphasizes the importance of integrating cutting-edge research and practices to build and manage resilient systems using artificial intelligence and other advanced technologies. Furthermore, the world is grappling with a host of pressing environmental challenges that demand immediate attention and action i.e. water scarcity and pollution, waste valorisation, biodesalination, sustainable energy and climate change-inducing disasters to health and biodiversity loss.

 

Aims:

· Stimulate the interest of scientists and citizens and inform them about the latest developments in the field of Waste-to-energy technologies & energy recovery, climate change, smart technologies for hazardous waste/wastewater treatment, biodesalination, climate change and air pollution control.

· Strengthen the link of the applied research with industry attaining circular economy

· Opportunity to bring together scientists & professionals from government departments, industries, Municipalities, private institutions, research & education institutions, being a forum for the exchange of the most recent ideas, techniques & experiences in all areas of environmental issues particularly climate change and water security and scarcity.

 

Topics:

We invite submissions that address a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to:

-Sustainable Water Production (biodesalination, wastewater treatment technologies) and Management including solid waste (hazardous and non-hazardous)

-Water Management and Circular Economy

-Renewable Energy, efficiency, and Decarbonization

-Ecology and Biodiversity Conservation

-Environmental Management and restoration

-Environmental Policy and Governance

-Climate Change and Adaptation

-Green Buildings and Urban Sustainability

-Natural Resources Management
