SYMPOSIUM
Symposium B:
Sustainable Materials, Processes, and Applications
This symposium will focus on sustainable materials, processes, and applications. The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to ensure sufficient food, water, energy, and human health for all. Material researchers make important contributions to the SDGs through sustainable materials, processes, and applications. All research areas are invited to participate in this symposium, including those who will impact future directions in sustainability. These include, for example, energy storage and conversion, catalysis, low-power electronics, automation/AI, elemental strategy, rare-earth and scare element alternatives, biodegradable plastics, energy efficient, low-cost processes, heat recycle/scavenging processes, natural energy processes, and related applications. In addition, novel concepts for sustainable development are also welcome.
Topics will include:
-
All materials for sustainable development
-
All processes for sustainable development
-
All applications for sustainable development
-
Novel concepts for sustainable development
