In the advent of rapid population growth industrial activity is expanding day by day. As a result, the natural resources are now under a severe stress leading to environmental degradation. The level of environmental pollution alarmingly increases, in spite of various control measures. Advanced technologies have been developed to address this problem, but those are not found to be sustainable in many cases. Skilled operational requirements and high recurring expenses also made them unsuitable for a long run. Under this situation, technological thrust needs to be given for introducing sustainable approach in the control of water, air, soil and noise pollution. Moreover, techno-economically viable methods are to be innovated for the emerging contaminants, which can cause serious threat to the environment. In order to disseminate on the above issues and to explore the research initiatives in the field of sustainable technologies, the 1st and 2nd National Conference on Sustainable Advanced Technologies for Environmental Management (SATEM-2017 and SATEM-2019) were held in 2017 and 2019 respectively.
The present international conference (SATEM–2023) is the upgraded Third version of the earlier conferences, which will be held in Hybrid (Online and Offline) mode. The conference is oriented to create an effective forum for the environmental scientists, engineers, technologist and the industry persons for sharing their research initiatives and real-life experience through oral presentation of the technical papers on relevant focus themes.
