Special Issue Information
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 CO2 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.
