EARTH 2022-Green Technologies for Waste Treatment and CO₂ Reduction

Dear Colleagues,

The 16th Earth Symposium (EARTH 2022) is the premier international congress in the field of resources and material circulation. The main objective is to foster knowledge transfer and exchange of experience amongst delegates with academic and industrial backgrounds.

We will offer all participants knowledge of the latest advances in resources processing, hydrometallurgy, pyrometallurgy, organic–inorganic material processing, waste to energy, recycling policy and management, net zero CO₂ emissions, and other important topics related to the environment, waste to energy, and resources and materials recycling.

Focus: This Special Issue focuses on introducing recycling policy and management, waste treatment, waste management, and CO₂ reduction throughout East Asia (Korea, Japan, Taiwan, China, and Thailand).

Scope: Due to the limited resources and increase in CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere, there are growing pressures and challenges for human beings. To address these problems, waste treatment, recycling and reutilization and reduction of CO_2­ are necessary now to obtain the optimal options for future generations.

Purpose: This Special Issue aims to introduce the new trends in waste treatment, recycling and reutilization, recycling policy and management, and CO₂ reduction.
