This book includes the proceedings of the 3rd International Congress on Engineering and Sustainability in the XXI CEntury, INCREaSE 2023. INCREaSE is a congress with the aim to bring together valuable and novel scientific contributions that address the critical issues of renewable energy, sustainable building, sustainable manufacturing, sustainable food production and other sustainability science and engineering topics that have an impact in this diverse and fast-changing research area, both in academia and industry. This 3rd edition of INCREaSE was held during July 5-7, 2023, in Faro, Portugal, organized by the Institute of Engineering and hosted by University of Algarve. The areas to be covered were: • Big data and data analytics applied to sustainability; • Climate change and mitigation, carbon reduction; • Combined heat and power and district heating systems; • Control and optimization of renewable energy systems; • Energy and environmental assessment in buildings and cities; • Food loss and food waste solutions; • Food safety and quality engineering; • Information technology and artificial intelligence applied to sustainability; • Nanoelectronic, nanomachining, and new nanomaterials; • Smart buildings, smart cities, smart districts, smart countryside; • Sustainability in water management; • Sustainable building technologies; • Sustainable development and circular economy; • Sustainable energy generation and management; • Sustainable food processing and packaging; • Sustainable manufacturing and maintenance processes and technology; • Sustainable technologies for risk mitigations; • Sustainable transport, smart vehicles and smart roads; and • Thermo fluids modelling and experiments for sustainability. High quality and unpublished content is an essential feature for all included papers. Moreover, the Organizing Committee of the conference guarantees that contributions were subjected to an appropriate level of reviewing process.

Welcome to the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Sustainability in Energy and Buildings, SEB’11, held in Marseilles in France, organised by the Laboratoire des Sciences del'Information et des Systèmes (LSIS) in Marseille, France in partnership with KES International. SEB'11 formed a welcome opportunity for researchers in subjects related to sustainability, renewable energy technology, and applications in the built environment to mix with other scientists, industrialists and stakeholders in the field. The conference featured presentations on a range of renewable energy and sustainability related topics. In addition the conference explored two innovative themes: the application of intelligent sensing, control, optimisation and modelling techniques to sustainability and the technology of sustainable buildings. These two themes combine synergetically to address issues relating to The Intelligent Building. SEB’11 attracted a significant number of submissions from around the world. These were subjected to a two-stage blind peer-review process. With the objective of producing a high-quality conference, only the best 50 or so of these were selected for presentation at the conference and publication in the proceedings. It is hoped that you will find this volume an interesting, informative and useful resource for your research.

This book presents high-quality peer-reviewed papers from the 3rd International Conference on Green Environmental Engineering and Technology (IConGEET), held in July 2021, Penang, Malaysia. The contents are broadly divided into four parts: (1) air pollution and climate change, (2) environment and energy management, (3) environmental sustainability, and (4) water and wastewater. The major focus is to present current researches in the field of environmental engineering towards green and sustainable technologies. It includes papers based on original theoretical, practical, and experimental simulations, development, applications, measurements, and testing. Featuring the latest advances in the field, this book serves as a definitive reference resource for researchers, professors, and practitioners interested in exploring advanced techniques in the field of environmental engineering and technologies.
