Invitation CreatingopportunitiesandlearningaboutthelatestresearchfindingsanddevelopmentsinthefieldoftheconversionofBiomassandWaste.

Building on the successful WasteEng Conference Series, we are delighted to announce the 7th Edition; WasteEng2018 to be held from July 2 to 5, 2018 in Prague (Czech Republic). WasteEng2018 will feature cutting-edge R&D and address barriers related to the Conversion of Biomass and Waste into Added-Value Materials and Energy. Theconferencewillalsoemphasizelifecycleassessmentandtechnologies, processes and practices that reduce emissions.

WasteEng2018 aims to bridge the gap between academic, industrial and governmental agencies by bringing together leading experts worldwide.

Specificallyitwilloffertremendousopportunitiesto:

• discuss and exchange your ideas with delegates from around the world

• meet face-to-face with some of the most active researchers and practitionersinthefield

• network and forge new contacts

• learnaboutthelatestinnovationandresearchfindingsinthisfield

Our previous events (WasteEng2005 in France, WasteEng2008 in Greece, WasteEng2010 in China, WasteEng2012 in Portugal, WasteEng2014 in Brazil,WasteEng2016 in France)were a greatsuccess, fostering discussion between participants, building new relationships and creating business opportunities.

Wasteeng conference became a key event in the international agenda inthefield.

Abstracts submission will be opened by June 6, 2017.
