0964029HuangGlobal warming and depletion of stratospheric ozone, depletion of forests, depletion of nonrenewable resources, pollution of air, water, and soil, scarcity of water for drinking and agriculture, excessive population growth, etc., are the major challenges that our global society is facing, regardless of developed or developing countries. To ensure engineering sustainability is a focal point for long-term development. The chemical and allied industries have been working collaboratively towards solutions to these pressing issues. This has also greatly stimulated academic institutions to develop sustainable engineering-focused innovative and aggressive research and educational programs. A forum for researchers and practitioners in this area to share their research and educational experience will be highly desirable. In this regard, the Second International Symposium on Sustainable Chemical Product and Process Engineering on Sustainable Chemical Engineering is being organized and will be held in Hangzhou, China, May 9-12, 2010.Intellectual Merit: The second symposium will have the following main objectives: (i) to share knowledge and research experience in studying engineering sustainability, (ii) to assess the state-of-the-art green material, product and process engineering, (iii) to bridge the gap between research and development and strengthen the linkage between academia and industry, (iv) to discuss research directions for the chemical and allied industries to move towards sustainability and educational approaches for the integration of industrial sustainability into the chemical engineering curriculum.Broader Impacts: The conference will (i) facilitate the exchange of knowledge between US researchers and educators with those in over 10 countries, and (ii) help the US delegates identify international collaboration opportunities in the research and education of sustainable chemical engineering. Junior faculty and researchers as well as graduate/undergraduate students, especially members of underrepresented groups will be encouraged to participate in the symposium, which will include two mini-workshops for catalyzing international collaborations on sustainable chemical engineering research and education.

无论是发达国家还是发展中国家，全球变暖和平流层臭氧的消耗、森林的消耗、不可再生资源的消耗、空气、水和土壤的污染、饮用水和农业用水的短缺、人口的过度增长等，都是我们全球社会面临的主要挑战。确保工程的可持续性是长期发展的焦点。化学和相关行业一直在合作解决这些紧迫问题。这也极大地刺激了学术机构发展以可持续工程为重点的创新和积极的研究和教育计划。非常希望有一个论坛，供这一领域的研究人员和实践者分享他们的研究和教育经验。在这方面，第二届可持续化学产品和过程工程国际研讨会正在组织，并将于2010年5月9日至12日在中国杭州举行。知识价值：第二届研讨会将有以下主要目标：(i)分享研究工程可持续发展的知识和研究经验；（ii）评估最先进的绿色材料、产品和工艺工程；（iii）弥合研究与开发之间的差距，加强学术界与工业界的联系；（iv）讨论化学及相关工业的研究方向，以迈向可持续发展，以及将工业可持续发展纳入化学工程课程的教育方法。更广泛的影响：会议将(i)促进美国研究人员和教育工作者与10多个国家的研究人员和教育工作者之间的知识交流，（ii）帮助美国代表确定可持续化学工程研究和教育方面的国际合作机会。将鼓励初级教师和研究人员以及研究生/本科生，特别是代表性不足的群体的成员参加研讨会，其中将包括促进可持续化学工程研究和教育方面的国际合作的两个小型讲习班。
