    Theme:Solid waste utilization & Synergetic benefits of pollution and carbon reduction

    Convener:

    He XU Professor

    Organization:

    Nankai University

    Secretary:

    Session Brief:

    The prevention and control of solid waste pollution is an important part of ecological civilization construction. The construction of a "zero-waste city" is an important starting point for the prevention and control of solid waste pollution. It is an inherent requirement to win the fight against pollution and achieve carbon peak and carbon neutrality. Under the background of the construction of a "zero-waste city", in-depth research on the synergetic benefit and realization mechanism of pollution reduction and carbon reduction from solid waste resource utilization is of great theoretical significance and practical value for the comprehensive carbon emission reduction work in China. This forum aims to explore the quantitative analysis method of pollution reduction and carbon reduction of solid waste resource utilization, portray the mechanism of synergetic emission reduction, carry out the evaluation research of the synergetic effect of pollution reduction and carbon reduction by using interdisciplinary methods, and put forward the path optimization policy suggestions for the synergetic realization of pollution reduction and carbon reduction of solid waste resource utilization.

    Theme:Carbon neutrality and Solid waste low carbon management

    Convener:

    Ru GUO Professor

    Organization:

    Tongji University

    Secretary:

    Session Brief:

    In September 2020, China announced that it will strive to peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060. This major strategic decision reflects careful consideration and has implications for the sustainable development of the Chinese nation and the establishment of a community with a shared future for mankind. Resource efficiency and carbon reduction is one of the important ways to achieve carbon peak and carbon neutrality, while solid waste resource utilization and low-carbon management are important fields. The sub-forum focuses on solid waste recycling and low-carbon management, and invites well-known scholars in related fields to jointly explore the interdisciplinary path of solid waste low-carbon management under the guidance of carbon neutrality. The aim is to provide a theoretical basis and scientific support for the coordinated promotion of carbon reduction, pollution reduction, quality improvement and efficiency improvement.

    Theme:Synergy Development of Carbon Neutrality and Recycling System

    Convener:

    Huijuan DONG Associate Professor

    Organization:

    Shanghai JiaoTong University

    Secretary:

    Session Brief:

    In the context of global climate change, achieving carbon neutrality is one of the important challenges all countries are facing. The recycling of renewable resources can not only solve the problem of solid waste treatment and resource shortage, but also be a strong support for achieving sustainable development and carbon neutrality. The sub-conference focuses on the theme of the coordinated development of carbon neutrality and resource recycling system. It will invite well-known young and middle-aged experts at home and abroad to make reports from different perspectives, such as relevant theories, methods and applications, and jointly discuss the collaborative development path and challenges of circular economy and low-carbon economy.

    Theme:Low-carbon treatment technology and application of multi-source solid waste

    Convener:

    Kang LIU Professor

    Organization:

    The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

    Secretary:

    Liu Kang, Ph.D. of the Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, "Hong Kong Scholar (The University of Hong Kong)", a researcher at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and a Senior Research Fellow at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His main research interests include solid waste treatment and resource utilization, urban mineral strategic metal green extraction and low-carbon circulation, and full life cycle assessment of solid waste. He has published over twenty papers as first author/corresponding author in environmental journals such as Environmental Science & Technology and Green Chemistry, and has successively presided over/participated in the implementation of multiple National Natural Science Foundation projects and national key research and development programs.

    Session Brief:

    Solid waste in China is distinguished by its vast quantity, extensive distribution, significant environmental repercussions, and promising avenues for utilization, cementing its role as a pivotal sector within comprehensive resource management. The advancement of green, low-carbon, and cyclical approaches to solid waste utilization carries substantial weight in enhancing resource efficiency, ameliorating environmental standards, and propelling an all-encompassing green transformation across economic and societal landscapes.
    Since the inception of the 14th Five-Year Plan, driven by policy initiatives and technological breakthroughs, China has experienced a continuous elevation in the comprehensive utilization of solid waste. The industrial infrastructure supporting such utilization undergoes consistent enhancements, with critical bottleneck technologies being successfully addressed, leading to the gradual establishment of a new paradigm marked by high-quality development in solid waste utilization.
    Leveraging the resources of the ICWMT, specialized gatherings focusing on diverse solid waste treatment technologies are coordinated, extending invitations to representatives from esteemed higher education institutions, research entities, enterprises engaged in solid waste management, and pertinent stakeholders. Participants are urged to share their research advancements, collectively explore the low-carbon cyclic utilization of diverse solid waste sources, and intricately examine the evolution and implementation of waste reduction, harmlessness, and resource-centric low-carbon technologies from the vantage points of cutting-edge research and practical engineering applications.
