Preface

The 14th International Conference on Green Technology (ICGT 2024) was held at the Atria Hotel and Convention Center in Malang, East Java, Indonesia, from October 1 to 2, 2024. ICGT is an esteemed annual multidisciplinary conference that serves as a platform for fostering collaboration and promoting intellectual exchange among educators, researchers, engineers, and industry professionals engaged in the advancement of science, technology, and related fields. In recent years, there has been increasing attention among scholars and practitioners regarding the need for green technologies to transition towards more integrated and sustainable approaches to environmental challenges. Existing frameworks, however, often fall short in addressing the region’s diverse climatic, cultural, and environmental contexts. In response to these pressing issues, the theme of the 14th ICGT 2024 was “Emerging Green Technology: A Path Towards a Resilient and Sustainable Built Environment.” The conference’s scientific program included keynote speeches, plenary sessions, and invited lectures, alongside parallel sessions covering a wide range of topics across the STEM disciplines. The event attracted a diverse audience comprising professors, PhD students, early-career researchers, academic supervisors, scientists, master’s students, and undergraduates from fields including earth sciences, environmental studies, engineering, natural sciences, technology, and innovation. The primary objective of the conference was to introduce students to the dynamic and evolving STEM landscape, keep experts abreast of the latest developments in their respective fields, and facilitate the exchange of knowledge and research insights across a broad spectrum of scientific and technological domains. Notably, the 14th ICGT 2024 emphasized the development of both accessible and advanced technologies to foster sustainability in diverse environmental and cultural settings. In light of the global disruptions in recent years, the 14th ICGT 2024 adopted a hybrid format. Although virtual participation was limited, this model enabled all attendees to engage with the conference either in person in Malang or virtually via Zoom. The conference agenda began with keynote speaker presentations and discussions, followed by parallel sessions for all presenters. Each presenter was allotted 20 minutes, including 15 minutes for their oral presentation and 5 minutes for discussion. These sessions were moderated, with all keynote speakers serving as reviewers for the presentations, both in the plenary room onsite and virtually. Additionally, all events were live-streamed on the university’s YouTube channel. We would like to express our gratitude to the organizing and scientific committees, as well as to all presenters and participants, for their unwavering support and contributions. Finally, we extend our sincere appreciation to the Faculty of Science and Technology at the Islamic State University of Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang for their generous financial support and assistance in ensuring the success of this event.

The Seventh International Conference on Mycorrhiza (ICOM7) took place in New Delhi, India from January 6– 11, 2013. This was the first time that an ICOM had been held in Asia, and it was a clear success, with 356 registrants from 46 countries. Dr. Alok Adholeya headed a very active, helpful, and enthusiastic local organizing committee, comprising a large team from the Mycorrhiza Research Group at the Energy Research Instiute (TERI). Scientific presentations were given by 4 keynote speakers, 20 plenary speakers, 96 concurrent workshop presenters and 160 poster presenters. The official opening ceremony was one of the most remarkable parts of ICOM7. The audience was spellbound, and even emotional from some reports, as they listened to the Indian Minister for Science and Technology, Mr. S. Jaipal Reddy, describe how important mycorrhiza research is to India. Many people were impressed to hear that Minister Reddy had spent the previous day at TERI learning about the mycorrhiza research going on there. Many of us were thinking: “That would ne]ver happen in my country!”. In a stimulating opening keynote presentation, Francis Martin described insights from the Mycorrhiza Genome Initiative Consortium. Using bioinformatics to compare the genomes and transcriptomes of ectomycorrhizal and wood-decay fungi, this group is identifying key steps in the evolution of ectomycorrhizal symbiosis. The rest of the opening plenary session on “Developmental, Functional and Environmental Genomics of Mycorrhiza” was equally stimulating. Anders Tunlid presented several types of evidence that Paxillus involutus degrades soil organic matter primarily using radical-based degradation systems, rather than the lignin and Mn-peroxidases seen in white-rot fungi, and that N, not C, is absorbed from the breakdown products. Natalia Requena described putative hexose transporters expressed in arbuscules and intraradical hyphae, which could be responsible for transfer of host C into the fungus. Tuesday’s plenary session focused on “Physiology, including Carbon and Nutrient Exchange between Symbionts and the Saprotrophic/Biotrophic Continuum”. Keynote speaker Uwe Nehls described recent findings on sugar, ammonium, and nitrate transporters that are bringing us closer to understanding the molecular basis for the transfer of nutrients between symbionts. In particular, the old paradigm of sugar being exported from root cells as sucrose and being broken down in the apoplast by plant-derived invertase before being taken up by fungal cells is being challenged by new data. Nutrient transfer in common mycelial networks was a hot topic at the conference: in some cases, but not others, hosts and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) exchange C and P in a “tit-for-tat” manner, with the rate of transfer of C influenced by the nutrient status of the host. While community ecology of mycorrhizal fungi is always well represented at ICOMs, the plenary session on “Population, Community and Physiological Ecology” and other related workshops at ICOM7 showcased everincreasing and ever-evolving fungal community studies. Keynote speaker, Ian Dickie, took us through ecosystem processes that may occur during the transition between AMand ectomycorrhizal (EM)-dominated ecosystems to M. D.

However due to the pandemic COVID-19 situation, we had to adapt the new normal regulation which restrict the face to face meeting to avoid the massive virus transmission. Therefore, the 6th ICTCRED 2020 was held in virtual format using Zoom application. This event could not be postponed since it has become the annual event of the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Universitas Diponegoro. Despite virtual event, we guarantee that the 6th ICTCRED 2020 was held professionally, following the rule of scientific conference. Starting with the plenary session with the presentation from the keynote speakers, the participants have their presentation in the panel sessions with 10 minute presentation and 10 minute discussion. The presentation of participant was in video recording format to avoid the technical problems during the presentation. However, the presence of participant was an obligation to answer the questions emerging during discussion session. The recording of the plenary session in the first and second day of the 6th ICTCRED 2020 can be seen on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7uZx6ebRQg&t=3094s and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQqZrAsvEJg&t=2990s, respectively.The committee extent very kind thank all participants for the success of the conference.

Alhamdulillah, all praise to Allah and His Prophet, our 5th International Conference on Civil and Environmental Engineering for Sustainability (IConCEES 2019) was successfully organised. This biannual event was organized by Faculty of Civil Engineering and Built Environment (formerly known as Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering) as a platform for scientists, researchers and engineers to share their knowledge, expertise and experiences as well as current research outcome in creating sustainable and environmental friendly world. The conference theme of “Today’s Sustainable Engineering for a Better Tomorrow” really emphasises on green technology that enhance better future for mankind benefit. It can be described as the needs to prepare the world for future generation to continue the responsibility to make the world a better place to live. It is the desire of all population and generations that mankind will continue to exist and lead the world.In recent years, rapid development generally make life’s better In terms of how we live on daily basis, how much easier technology aided our lifestyle and increment in production efficiency. However, at the same time, our earth is paying the price for these rapid developments with more pollution arise, natural resources decrement and lots more. Through this conference, ideas, initial outcome, research products and green policies were coined and solutions to preserve our dying nature were recommended. Perhaps it can be further enhance to be applied and implemented globally. Thus, it is our duty to ensure that we conduct the necessary steps towards sustainability of the world in whatever discipline and role that we have.
