Call for papers/Topics

Topics of interest for submission include any topics related to:

1. Green Chemical Engineering

These topics focus on the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.

The 12 Principles of Green Chemistry: Waste prevention, atom economy, less hazardous chemical syntheses, designing safer chemicals, safer solvents and auxiliaries, design for energy efficiency, use of renewable feedstocks, reduce derivatives, catalysis, design for degradation, real-time analysis for pollution prevention, and inherently safer chemistry for accident prevention.

Green Solvents and Reaction Media: Supercritical fluids (e.g., CO₂, water), ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents (DES), bio-based solvents (e.g., ethyl lactate), and solvent-free reactions.

Process Intensification: Microreactors and spinning disk reactors, modular chemical manufacturing, microwave- and ultrasound-assisted synthesis, and reactive distillation.

Catalysis and Biocatalysis: Heterogeneous and homogeneous green catalysis, biomimetic catalysts, and enzyme immobilization techniques.

2. Bioscience & Bioprocess Engineering

This domain leverages biological systems, organisms, or derivatives to develop products and processes for sustainable industries.

Metabolic Engineering & Synthetic Biology: Genetic modification of microbes for chemical production, CRISPR applications in metabolic pathways, and cell-free protein synthesis.

Bioreactor Design & Fermentation Technology: Batch, fed-batch, and continuous bioreactors; scale-up challenges in bioprocessing; gas fermentation (e.g., syngas, CO₂ utilization); and downstream processing and purification of biomolecules.

Industrial Biotechnology (White Biotech): Bio-based production of polymers, organic acids, and fine chemicals; and enzymatic degradation of industrial waste.

Agricultural and Food Bioscience: Sustainable crop engineering for climate resilience, cellular agriculture (lab-grown meat), and valorization of agricultural residues.

3. Energy & Environmental Sustainability

This pillars addresses the transition away from fossil fuels and the mitigation of human impacts on ecosystems.

Renewable Energy Systems: Solar photovoltaics and advanced materials, wind energy engineering, next-generation geothermal and tidal power, and grid integration and smart energy storage.

Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS): Post-combustion and pre-combustion carbon capture, direct air capture (DAC), geological carbon sequestration, and mineralization.

Water-Energy-Food Nexus: Sustainable desalination technologies, wastewater treatment and resource recovery, and precision agriculture and water conservation.

Pollution Control and Remediation: Bioremediation and phytoremediation of contaminated soils/water, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), and air pollution control technologies.

4. Interrelated & Convergence Topics

The most impactful innovations occur where Green Chemical Engineering, Bioscience, and Sustainability overlap.

Biorefineries and Waste Valorization:
- Lignocellulosic Biorefineries: Fractionation of biomass into cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin.
- Waste-to-Energy & Waste-to-Chemicals: Anaerobic digestion for biogas, pyrolysis, and gasification of municipal solid waste.

The Bioeconomy & Circular Economy:
- Bio-based Plastics and Materials: Synthesis and biodegradation of PLA, PHA, and starch-based plastics.
- Closed-Loop Supply Chains: Design for recycling (DfR) in chemical manufacturing and industrial symbiosis (where one industry's waste becomes another's feedstock).

Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) & Advanced Biofuels:
- First to Fourth-Generation Biofuels: Biodiesel, bioethanol, cellulosic ethanol, and algae-based fuels.
- Electro-fuels (e-fuels): Combining captured CO₂ with green hydrogen via biochemical or thermochemical pathways.

The Hydrogen Economy:
- Green Hydrogen Production: Water electrolysis powered by renewable energy.
- Biohydrogen: Dark fermentation and photo-fermentation by microorganisms.
- Hydrogen Storage and Transport: Ammonia as a hydrogen carrier, liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), and fuel cell optimization.

Electrochemical and Photochemical Engineering:
- Electrocatalytic CO₂ Reduction: Converting carbon dioxide into fuels (methanol, ethylene) using renewable electricity.
- Artificial Photosynthesis: Hybrid biological-synthetic systems that mimic plants to produce chemical energy from sunlight.

Systems Sustainability Assessment:
- Life Cycle Assessment (LCA): Quantifying environmental impacts from cradle to grave.
- Techno-Economic Analysis (TEA): Evaluating the financial viability of green and bioscience technologies.
- Exergy Analysis: Assessing thermodynamic efficiency and energy quality degradation in green processes.
