Sustainable Process Integration: Simultaneous Minimisation of Resource Intake and Emissions
Moderators: Dr. Petar Varbanov, Prof. Jiří Jaromír Klemeš
Considering the alarming levels of greenhouse gases (CO2 CH4, NOx) in the atmosphere, a lot of research and technology development is focused on minimising the greenhouse, nitrogen, energy and water footprints (Čuček et al., 2015) in the search for a comprehensive solution in the area of energy savings. This also includes improving the efficiency of fossil fuel installations (Wang et al., 2015).
Energy generation from various sources, as well as the intake of other resources for producing goods and services is clearly measured by the related costs, revenues and profits (Nemet et al., 2015), describing the economic part of the sustainability picture. The various environmental impacts of industrial, commercial and residential activities, measured by the cited footprints (Hoekstra and Tomas, 2014), are the most obvious ones, adding the environmental part of the picture in terms of sustainability. Other key part is the social sustainability – incorporating human health and societal stability.
What can experts in natural sciences and engineering do for providing the appropriate system models and supporting efficiently decision making on sustainability issues? They are several topics that can be researched with maximal impact:
Getting published in an International Journal, perspectives of the publisher and the editors-in-chief
Moderator: Ms. Fernanda Ogochi
As researchers, you want to get publish to disseminate your ideas, to uncover potential research collaborations, to progress in your academic career and to secure research funding. The panel will provide background information on scholarly publishing and outline the various important steps authors need to follow in preparing their manuscript for a successful publication in an international journal. The lecture is suitable for PhD and Post Docs students, as well as for academics which have been already involved in dissemination their research results.
The importance of authors to learn the specific aspects of the publishing cycle has become ever more crucial as the number of submissions, and as a consequence the number of rejections continues to rise. Increase your chances to get published and stand out in crowd, by understand the process and the expectations of editors when they receive your manuscript.
The panel, which consists of the editors-in-chief of leading partner journals to the SDEWES Conference and the publisher of Energy & Power Journals at Elsevier, will share their perspective on the process and will highlight the key aspects authors should take into account when submitting their papers to journals.
