Summary :
Environmental pollution caused by harmful anthropogenic substances or the uncontrolled utilization of natural resources, has become a global problem threatening human health. As such, substantial efforts have been made to develop effective technologies for mitigating or remediating environmental pollutions. To date, multiple innovative technologies of environmental mitigation/remediation including physical/chemical remediation, multiple-compound adsorbent, and bioremediation technology have been developed and validated to better protect soil, water, and atmosphere environment. Additionally, macro environmental and ecological planning increasingly play an important role in guiding environmental restoration. Therefore it is now necessary to combine the environmental pollution cases with advanced remediation technology to improve the possibility of developing new technologies to protect the environment.
This workshop sets up a perfect stage for experts from both environmental remediation and ecosystem sustainability to present their latest research accomplishments from academia and industry perspectives.

Title: High-efficiency strategies for anaerobic bioconversion of organic waste to Bioenergy/Bioresource toward volume reduction and carbon neutrality
Summary :
Organic solid waste, e.g., kitchen waste, excess sludge, biomass-waste, etc., has been regarded as a valuable resource due to the highly-enriched proportion of biodegradable organic matters. The Anaerobic Digestion (AD) process has gained particular attention during the last two decades because of its benefits in low energy demand, renewable energy production, and improvement in waste management. Various AD process strategies, e.g. multistage batch fermentation, coupling with bioelectrochemical systems (BESs), biochar, Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET), have been proposed to achieve high-efficiency bioconversion of waste to bioenergy/resources towards toxicity elimination and carbon neutrality. This workshop pursues concurrent high-value-added products/resource generation (e.g., biogas, bioelectricity, volatile fatty acids, bioplastic synthesis, etc.), and solid waste reduction towards carbon emission minimization/carbon neutrality.
This workshop will shed light on enhancing organic solid waste treatment and management with high efficiency of recoverable resources/energy harvest and low (even zero)-carbon emission. This workshop explores various themes, including the understanding of the mechanism of anaerobic microbial interactions, bio-energy/resource harvest via bioelectrochemical systems (BESs), carbon neutrality-organic wastes treatment and management techniques, direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET), extracellular electron transport (EET) by redox mediates, biofuel bioconversion from organic waste, and other topics relevant to enhancing strategies for AD. This workshop is devoted to presenting and discussing solid waste treatment, minimization, bioenergy/resource recovery, and disposal. The following are some of the major areas in which papers are solicited:• Research advances on anaerobic digestion/fermentation • Merits of Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) for solid waste treatment and the relevant combined processes • Advanced methods for solid waste treatment toward toxicity elimination and carbon neutrality • Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET) for enhancing anaerobic digestion • Redox mediator applications upon stimulation of extracellular electron transport

Title: Green Functional Materials R&D and Ecological Risk Assessment in Environmental and Ecological Restoration
Summary :
Polymer-based membranes and films have played an important role in removing air pollutants over the past few decades. There is currently a growing interest in the development of functional cellulose nanofiber (CNF) films for the removal of air pollutants. In particular, the development of materials with a higher absorption and conversion capacity of pollutant gases, i.e. CO2, SOx, and NOx, are a growing concern of the scientists. Here we have explained chemically modified CNFs with carboxylic surface functional groups by TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) -oxidation and chemically bound nanocomposites based on modified CNFs with different metal pillars or organometallic frameworks create a robust and highly efficient material for various environmental applications for air purification. From this point of view, functional CNFs were used by immobilizing Pt nanoparticles and dendrimer loaded organoclay on the films for the degradation of indoor air pollutants (IAPs), i.e.
Formaldehyde. The thin cellulose nanofibers were made with TEMPO radicle to achieve a thickness in the nanometer range without breaking the length. In addition, the use of cellulose nanofibers as a substrate or film has various advantages: The cellulose nanofibers are a renewable natural raw material, naturally degradable and easy to functionalize. Meanwhile, Pt nanoparticles are used as an environmental catalyst for the decomposition of indoor air pollutants (IAPs), while dendrimer-loaded organoclays have been used as gas adsorption and give the film mechanical strength. In our previous study we found that dendrimer plays the role of a reservoir for selective gas capture and as a carrier of electron / proton on the CNFs. To put into the practice, an environmentally conscious catalyst film was designed together with dendrimer, clay and Pt catalyst with different loading ratios and characterized by various analytical techniques before the decomposition of the IAPs

Title: Research on energy management strategy of hydrogen fuel cell power system in urban rail transit
Keywords: Hydrogen fuel cell power system、Energy management、Working condition construction
Summary :
Aiming at the problem that the equivalent energy consumption in the energy management of fuel cell/super capacitor/lithium battery hybrid energy storage trams is greatly affected by load randomness so it cannot guarantee the optimal global power distribution, and to further enhance the fuel economy. An operation optimization strategy is proposed based on external energy consumption. Firstly, the load energy demand is divided into two parts: the real-time fuel consumption of the internal energy fuel cell and the power consumption of the external power lithium battery/super capacitor; secondly, in order to share the high power load pressure of the fuel cell, the objective function is rewritten from the equivalent energy consumption minimization strategy to maximization of the external power output, thus, there is no need to evaluate equivalent energy consumption, so as to achieve the purpose of enhancing the robustness for load change and minimizing real-time hydrogen consumption; finally, the proposed optimization strategy is compared with the equivalent energy consumption minimization and the state machine and power decoupling strategy. The results show that, in the whole cycle conditions, comparing with the equivalent energy minimization strategy, the proposed method reduces the hydrogen consumption by 17.68g and the peak current by 21.81A; comparing with the state machine and power decoupling strategy, it reduces the hydrogen consumption by 39.04g and the peak current by 56.9A; moreover, the bus voltage deviation range and the stress of each energy source are significantly improved as well.

Workshop: Catalysts for CO2 Conversion
Summary :
Fossil fuel depletion, global warming, climate change, and steep hikes in the price of fuels are driving considerable investigations on environmentally friendly and renewable energy and green chemical technologies, such as CO2 utilization, plastic degradation, wastewater treatment, etc. Green chemistry is the utilization of a series of technologies that can reduce or eliminate the use or production of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture, and applications of chemical products. The key point of green chemical technology is the development of new chemical systems and reaction conditions that can improve chemical synthesis in the aspects of resource conservation, energy saving, product selectivity, operation simplification, and health and environment safety.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together the research accomplishments provided by researchers from academia and the industry. The other goal is to show the latest research progress in the field of green chemical technology. We encourage prospective participants to submit related distinguished research papers on the subject of both: theoretical approaches and practical case reviews. Please name the title of the submission email with “paper title _ workshop title”.
