Topics/Call for Papers

Full Articles/ Reviews/ Shorts Papers/ Abstracts are welcomed in the following research fields:


 

💡 1. Sustainable Energy and Power Systems

This area is central to decarbonization and the transition away from fossil fuels.

  • Renewable Energy Sources: Research and innovation in Solar Photovoltaics (PV), Wind Energy (onshore/offshore), Geothermal, Hydropower, and Marine/Ocean Energy (wave and tidal).

  • Energy Storage & Grids: Development of Advanced Battery Technologies (e.g., solid-state, flow batteries), Hydrogen Energy (production, storage, and fuel cells), and Smart Grids and decentralized energy production systems.

  • Energy Efficiency and Conservation: Low-carbon building design, Energy Management Systems (EMS), improved insulation, and energy-efficient appliances and HVAC systems.

  • Decarbonization Technologies: Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technologies and strategies for reducing industrial greenhouse gas emissions.


 

♻️ 2. Circular Economy and Green Materials

This theme focuses on resource management, waste reduction, and the environmental footprint of physical inputs.

  • Circular Economy Models: Implementing closed-loop manufacturing, Industrial Symbiosis (repurposing waste from one industry as input for another), and Product Life Cycle Assessment (LCA).

  • Sustainable Materials Science: Development of Green Materials (e.g., bio-based, self-healing, low-carbon concrete alternatives), sustainable composites, and Biofuels/Biomass systems.

  • Waste Management and Resource Utilization: Advanced recycling technologies, Waste-to-Energy (WtE) processes, and sustainable solutions for plastic and e-waste management.

  • Green Chemistry: Designing chemical products and processes that minimize or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.


 

🏗️ 3. Sustainable Infrastructure and Built Environment

Topics covering the design, construction, and operation of resilient, low-impact urban and civil systems.

  • Green Building and Design: Passive Solar Design, green roofs, energy-efficient building standards (e.g., LEED, BREEAM), and indoor environmental quality.

  • Sustainable Transportation: Development and infrastructure for Electric Vehicles (EVs), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), and promoting public and active transport (walkable/bike-friendly cities).

  • Sustainable Water Management: Wastewater treatment and purification, water recycling (greywater/rainwater harvesting), and efficient irrigation systems.

  • Smart Cities and Resource Optimization: Integrating AI and IoT to optimize resource use, manage traffic flow, and monitor environmental conditions in real-time.


 

📈 4. Policy, Climate Action, and System Integration

This covers the tools and frameworks needed to measure, finance, and govern sustainable transition.

  • Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation: Engineering solutions for climate resilience, including flood defenses and sustainable land reclamation.

  • Policy and Financing: Regulatory frameworks, Sustainable Finance and green investment models, carbon pricing, and environmental policy effectiveness.

  • Environmental Monitoring: Use of Remote Sensing and Environmental Informatics for pollution tracking, biodiversity monitoring, and ecosystem assessment.

  • Ethical and Social Dimensions: Addressing social equity, environmental justice, and ensuring the benefits of green technologies are accessible to all communities.
