Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to publish papers related to sustainable science/engineering for environmental health problems. Environmental problems can occur as a result of economic activities, which then can deteriorate human health. Examples of such problems include respiratory illnesses caused by air pollutants released from industrial and transportation sectors. Though convenience needs to be pursued, it has to be balanced with sustainable environment and human health. In this Special Issue, we aim to publish papers describing interactions between sustainable science/engineering and environmental health problems. Topics include, but are not limited to, sustainable remedial/removal technologies for environmental pollutants that can adversely affect human health (e.g., air, water, and soil). In addition, we also invite papers emphasizing, not only technological, but also scientific dimensions of environmental health problems in relation to sustainability.
