Submission

Authors are invited to submit a 4-page (no more and no less in length) extended abstract which will follow the instruction provided in the Abstract Template. To be accepted for the Conference, the submissions must report work that is novel, well described, and suited to the Conference themes. Submissions must contain original data and meet international ethical standards.

Selection criteria include high technical quality, relevance to the conference themes, and significant information content. Papers for accepted abstracts must be prepared by adopting the Paper Template.

On the basis of the submitted extended abstracts, a review will be undertaken to select the best extended abstracts for oral presentation or poster presentation.
The highest quality extended abstracts will be selected and authors will receive an invitation to submit to cooperating journals for inclusion in special issues after the normal peer review process of the following journals: Chemical Engineering Journal, Journal of Environmental Management, Journal of Environmental Engineering, Science of the Total Environment.

The acceptance of a full paper for conference presentation does not guarantee subsequent acceptance for journal publication, the final decision on journal publication lies with the journals’ Editor-in-Chief. Any copyright transfer will be necessary to provide for full papers.

At least one author of each selected paper must register and attend the conference to present the paper (poster or platform presentation). Multiple abstracts can be referred to one author.
