Environmental Engineering and Pollution Control will be held during Mar.13 –

Mar.15,2017 in China , aims to bring together leading academic scientists,

researchers and research scholars to exchange and share their experiences and

research results on all aspects of Environmental Engineering and Pollution

Control. It also provides a premier interdisciplinary platform for researchers,

practitioners and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations,

trends, and concerns as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions

adopted in the fields of Environmental Engineering and Pollution Control.

CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS:

All honorable authors are kindly encouraged to contribute to and help shape the

conference through submissions of their research abstracts, papers and e-posters.

Also, high quality research contributions describing original and unpublished

results of conceptual, constructive, empirical, experimental, or theoretical work in

all areas of Environmental Engineering and Pollution Control are cordially invited

for presentation at the conference. The conference solicits contributions of

abstracts, papers and e-posters that address themes and topics of the conference,

including figures, tables and references of novel research material.

IMPORTANCE & SCOPE ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING:

Environmental engineering provides holistic approach to the protection and

preservation of the environment. The environment engineers devise innovative

and improved means to protect the quality of air, water, and land.

Environment engineering is the systematic application of scientific principles to

preserve and protect the environment in which we live and to design solutions for

environmental problems. It is responsibility of environmental engineers to

provide safe drinking water, control air and noise pollution, manage waste,

preserve bio-diversity, and monitor other environment issues. Of late,

environmental engineering studies have become even more important because of

the severe threats of global warming, air pollution, and carbon emissions. Our

environment is no more in the same shape as it was few hundred years ago.

Indeed the world has made technological advancements but our environment and

nature has suffered the most at the cost of development. The onus lies with the

environmental engineers to maintain the environmental balance and reduce

pollutants from our atmosphere.

If we have to categorize work of environment engineers broadly, then we can

divide the work primarily into three major categories namely:

Air quality management to reduce air pollution and filter breathing air. Water supply and treatment for potable and agricultural uses. Solid and Hazardous waste management.

ROLE OF ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING:

Environmental engineering is a wide-ranging field of study comprising of several

diverse subjects like ecology, chemical engineering, biology, public health and

environmental law. The role of environmental engineering is to manage water,

waste, public health, air quality and transportation for a growing world

population while preserving the natural environment. Our environment greatly

affects our health and life style, thus it becomes extremely important to protect

and preserve environment by applying the concepts and principles of engineering

and science.

Environmental engineering also aims to minimize environmental impacts on

current human practices. Environmental engineers are expected to possess the

scientific and technical knowledge to identify, design, build, and operate systems

that protect and preserve the environment. The breadth and multidisciplinary

nature of environmental issues that confront the world today demands

environmental engineers expand their skills beyond the range normally

associated with any single engineering field.

Role of environmental engineers includes taking care of the following aspects of

environment:

Conducting hazardous waste management studies and devising methods to control disposal of hazardous substances in the environment.

Formulating rules and laws to ensure pollution control of air, water, and sound.

Natural Source Management and Risk Assessment of industrial processes.

Environmental impact assessment and mitigation.

Promoting green engineering technologies and motivating people to use them.

Emphasizing the need of energy conservation and balancing industrial ecology.

Addressing public health issues.

SCOPE AND IMPORTANCE OF POLLUTION CONTROL:

Pollution control is a major global concern because of the harmful effects of pollution on a person’s health and on the environment. Environmental pollution comes in various forms, such as: air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, etc. Pollution control means monitoring and removal of chemical, thermal, radioactive, and biological pollutants through the application of process engineering, environmental chemistry, water and sewage treatment, and waste management. Pollution control reduces the amount of pollution generated by a process, whether it is consumer. In contrast to most pollution control strategies, which seek to manage a after it is formed and reduce its impact upon the environment the pollution prevention approach seeks to increase the efficiency of

a process, thereby reducing the amount of pollution generated at its source. Although there is wide agreement that source reduction is the preferred strategy, some professionals also use the term pollution prevention to include pollution reduction.

With increasing human population, pollution has become a great concern. Pollution from human activities is a problem that does not have to be inevitable. With a comprehensive pollution prevention program, most pollution can be reduced, reused, or prevented.

WHY IT IS CHINA?

China 2017 International Conference on Emerging Trends In Environmental Engineering and Pollution Control scheduled on Mar 13-15, 2017 at China is for the scientists, scholars, engineers and students from the Universities all around the world and the industry to present ongoing research activities, and hence to foster research relations between the Universities and the industry. The air in much of China is so bad the government has repeatedly declared "war" on it. Beijing recently issued its first pollution 'red alert', closing schools, factories and construction sites, and ordering half of all private cars off the road. This conference provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and application experiences face to face, to establish business or research relations and to find way to control this pollution in China. All the submitted conference papers will be peer reviewed by the program/technical committees of the Conference. All accepted papers of the conference will be published in the printed conference proceedings with valid International ISBN number.

WHY TO ATTEND?

The main aim of attending the conference is to take part in controlling the

pollution and to enhance the growth of environment and our globe. In this

modern world, Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into

the environment that causes harmful and toxic effects to living things. Pollution

can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat or

light. Pollution is often classified as point source or non-point source pollution.

Soil, which can also be called soil contamination, is a result of acid rain, polluted

water, fertilizers etc., which leads to bad crops. Soil contamination occurs when

chemicals are released by spill or underground storage tank leakage which

releases heavy contaminants into the soil. These may include hydrocarbons,

heavy metals, MTBE, herbicides, pesticides and chlorinated hydrocarbons.

MARKET GROWTH:

The global air pollution control equipment market should grow significantly once utility, oil and gas companies comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations such as the EPA’s Maximum Achievable Control Technology rules, according to research by business consulting firm Frost & Sullivan. Analysis finds that the market earned revenues of $7.27 billion in 2010 and estimates this to reach $9.69 billion in 2017.According to the report, the EPA’s MACT rules will compel pollution control equipment providers to reevaluate products to fulfill emission regulations. Planned projects between 2012 and 2013 are likely to be delayed until 2014, the report says.
