Track 1:Environmental chemistry

Environmental chemistry is the study of those changes that have had an effect on both living organisms and non-living matter in the environment. These impacts may be felt on a local scale, through the presence of urban air pollutants or toxic substances arising from a waste site, or on a global scale, through depletion of stratospheric ozone or global warming. However, it is important to realize that all forms of matter in our environment whether synthetic or natural are made of chemicals.

Track 2:Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Recovery

Reduce: this entails the deliberate lowering on the amount of plastics an individual uses in their day to day life.Reuse:  this involves putting to use plastics that have already been used. This can mean putting them to better use than just throwing them away. Recycle: The basic phases in recycling are the collection of waste materials, their processing or manufacture into new products, and the purchase of those products, which may then themselves be recycled. Recycling can help reduce the quantities of solid waste deposited in landfills, which have become increasingly expensive. Recycling also reduces the pollution of air, water, and land resulting from waste disposal.Recovery: this entails the insistence on not using plastic but rather finding and using existing alternatives.

  • Special Waste
  • Zero Waste

 

 

Track 3:Waste and Biomass Valorization

Waste and Biomass Valorization is the process of treatment of waste for (landfill) disposal, storage, and in some cases sorting. In the 1990s, depletion of raw materials and socio-economic concerns supported the direct recycling of waste and residues. Various valorization techniques are currently showing promise in meeting industrial demands. Waste and Biomass Valorization is the process of treatment of waste for (landfill) disposal, storage, and in some cases sorting. Various valorization techniques are currently showing promise in meeting industrial demands. Due to depletion of natural resources, increasing greenhouse emissions and awareness of the need for sustainable development in terms of safely reusing waste and biomass, the transformation of waste/biomass to valuable materials and energy is emerging as a strong trend.

Track 4:Biodiesel and Biofuels

Biofuel is energy made from living matter, usually plants. Bioethanol, biodiesel, and biogas are types of biofuels. Biofuels are considered renewable energies, emit less than fossil fuels, and have received increasing attention in the transition to a low-carbon economy. Biodiesel fuels are more sensitive to oxidative degradation and then fossil diesel fuels. Bioethanol (aka ethanol) is the most well know biofuel and is an alcohol produced from corn, sorghum, potatoes, wheat, sugar cane, even cornstalks and vegetable waste. It is commonly blended with gasoline. Biodiesel is oil from plants or animals used as an alternative to or blended with petroleum diesel in automobiles and industrial fleets with diesel engines. Biogas is created as a by-product of decomposing plant and animal waste in environments with low levels of oxygen: landfills, waste treatment facilities, and dairies. Biogas is made up primarily of methane and carbon dioxide (greenhouse gasses), thus the natural incentives are strong to keep biogas from entering the atmosphere.

Track 5:Bio- Electrochemical Treatment Systems

Bio-Electrochemical Treatment Systems use microorganisms to catalyze different electrochemical reactions, as well as generating electrical power from wastes, the generation of many different chemical products or biofuels, and the removal of organic, and/or inorganic compounds from water flows. Groundwater, as the main resource of drinking water, is usually characterized by low conductivity (less than 1 MS cm-1.

Track 8:Renewable Resources

Renewable resources can be described as a rather tricky balancing act. Renewable resource intake and use commonly do not yield decomposition or contribute to global warming.  It is easy to recognize the environmental advantages of utilizing the alternative and renewable forms of energy but we must also be aware of the disadvantages. It can be crucial to develop the capacity of electricity that is as large as those produced by traditional fossil fuel generators.

Track 9:Waste Water treatments

Wastewater treatment processes are arranged to achieve improvements in the quality of the wastewater. The various treatment processes may reduce Suspended solids physical particles that can clog rivers or channels as they settle under gravity· Biodegradable organics which can provide as food for microorganisms in the receiving body. Pathogenic bacteria and other disease causing organisms these are most relevant where the receiving water is used for drinking, or where people would otherwise be in close contact with it; and Nutrients, including nitrates and phosphates. Universally used terminology refers to three levels of wastewater treatment: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary treatment is designed to remove gross, suspended and floating solids from raw sewage. It includes screening to trap solid objects and sedimentation by gravity to remove suspended solids. This level is sometimes referred to as mechanical treatment, although chemicals are often used to stimulate the sedimentation process.

Track 12:Bio- Energy from Waste

The potential for increasing total traditional biomass utilization for energy purposes is limited. The thrust of the activities is therefore twofold, one aim is to broaden the scope of biomass utilization into upgrading and the other aim is to broaden the biofuel base as such. This in turn implies an enhanced focus on fuels for transportation and power generation with respect to traditional biomass and a focus on direct heating for more complex biomass, such as waste etc.

Track 21:Pollution and Climate Change

Air pollution and climate changes are closely related. The main sources of CO2 emissions  the extraction and burning of fossil fuels  are not only key drivers of climate change, but also major sources of air pollutants. Furthermore, many air pollutants that are harmful to human health and ecosystems also contribute to climate change by affecting the amount of incoming sunlight that is reflected or absorbed by the atmosphere, with some pollutants warming and others cooling the Earth. These are called short-lived climate-forcing pollutants include methane, black carbon, ground-level ozone, and sulfate aerosols. They have significant impacts on the climate; black carbon and methane in particular are among the top contributors to global warming after CO2.
