ICEST 2023

Advanced Studies on Environmental Sustainability

This volume presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Environment and Sustainability (ICEST 2023). The International Conference on Environment and Sustainability (ICEST 2023) was held at the College of Science and College of Applied Sciences – Heet, University of Anbar, Iraq, in collaboration with Al-Maarif University College, Anbar, Iraq, from November 29 to 30, 2023. The Conference aimed to provide a platform for researchers, academicians, scientists, students, and practitioners to share their research findings, developments, and applications related to various aspects of environment and sustainability. The conference proceedings, which will be published, will include selected papers that have undergone rigorous review by a panel of reviewers to meet international publication standards. The Conference brought together experts and scholars from different backgrounds to discuss topics such as energy research, environmental technology, chemical engineering, power engineering, and sustainable development. This proceedings volume presents the most recent studies and research in environmental sciences and sustainability, which contribute to resolving environmental issues (air, water, soil, noise, thermal, radioactive, light, and global warming). Discharging environmental pollutants from industrial, commercial, residential, and sensible locations must be handled carefully since it may harm the air, water, and land if not adequately treated. As a result of the enormous volume of wastewater and environmental pollution generated daily, most designs and developments of wastewater technologies and environmental treatment were unable to handle the load. This threat to sustainable growth must be resolved in a precise, dependable, urgent, and timely manner. Sustainable creative and technical transfer approaches that can support, operationalize, and provide sustainable wastewater and environmental treatment solutions are of interest to us. The authors hope the book will cover the possible spectrum of wastewater technologies and environmental treatment up to a high level of environmental protection, clean and green management lessons, identify the barriers to transformational change, and then inform the agenda and initiatives for sustainable development. ICES 2023 is dedicated to wastewater technology and environmental treatment, with a focus on achieving the highest level of environmental protection.
