About the Conference
Over the past few decades, research and developments in chemical as well as applied sciences have been directed towards finding cleaner solutions and sustainable techniques. The seventeen sustainable development goals (SDGs) are defined by the United Nations for preserving the planet Earth and maintaining its harmony. Few of the emerging branches of chemical sciences, viz green chemistry and sustainable chemistry, focus on SDG12, “Responsible consumption and production". Developments in the fields of nanoscience and material science have opened new avenues to achieve SDGs 6, 7, 14, and 15. This conference is aimed at discussing recent advancements in chemical and applied sciences and their interfaces for the development of novel materials and chemical processes for applications in health, energy, environmental remediation, and the circular economy. This would provide a common platform for multidisciplinary researchers to come together for sustainable solutions by enhancing networking with eminent scientists from academia, industry, research organizations and government agencies.
