the Third International Conference on New Trends in Sustainable Energy with the theme: “from waste to energy”.

The world is awash with waste energy rejected from various industrial plants, buildings, vehicles, etc. Besides being a waste, energy rejected to the atmosphere increases the carbon footprint of these installations contributing to global warming. There is an increasing evidence that Global Warming is the main cause of many recent natural disasters such as forest fires, hurricanes, flooding, droughts, etc., leading to lower life-safety and quality of life on our planet. A concerted effort from the scientific community around the world is urgently needed to develop means to reduce these effects and even reverse global warming. One way to do that is to minimize rejected energy by making our engineering equipment/installations more efficient and another way is by utilizing waste energy to power other integrated subsystems.

The Faculty of Engineering at Pharos University in collaboration with the KTH Royal Institute of Technology will share in the above-described efforts by organizing the Third International Conference on New Trends in Sustainable Energy with the theme: “from waste to energy”. This year’s conference strives is to bring together leading researchers, academicians, engineers, scientists and other stakeholders with interest in sustainability, from various countries around the globe, to present their work and exchange ideas and experiences along the theme of the conference.
