Second International Conference on Recycling and Reuse of Mater

Sub:	Second International Conference on Recycling and Reuse of Materials (Polymers,      Wood, Leather, Glass, Metals, Ceramics, Semi Conductors, Water etc) and their products (ICRM – 2011), 5, 6 and 7 August 2011, Kottayam, Kerala, India.

Conference website:  www.recycling.macromol.in  

Greetings and best wishes from the ♣ Institute of Macromolecular Science and Engineering (IMSE), Kottayam, Kerala, India ♣ Beijing University of Chemical Technology , Bei San Huan East Road 15#, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China and ♣ Venen - Klinik Dr. Mathew, St. Primus Weg 68, A-9020 Klagenfurt, Austria. We are glad to write to you that we are organizing the Second International Conference on Recycling and Reuse of Materials (Polymers, Wood, Leather, Water, Glass, Metals, Ceramics, and Semi Conductors etc) and their Products (ICRM-2011), Kottayam, Kerala, India. The last conference on Recycling and Reuse of Materials in 2009 held in Kottayam, India (ICRM 2009) was a great success. This conference will cover the following areas:

This conference will be one of the big International meetings exclusively dedicated to Recycling and Reuse of Materials and their Products. The conference will be extremely useful in the sense that it will be attended by hundreds of Chemists, Physicists, Technologists and Engineers, making it a truly interdisciplinary conference. The goal of the conference emphasizes interdisciplinary research on processing, morphology, structure, properties and applications of recycling and  reuse of materials and their products and their applications in automotive, civil, chemical, aerospace, computer and marine engineering. This symposium will bring together a panel of highly-accomplished experts in the field of Recycling and Reuse of Materials and their Products.  Talks will encompass basic studies and applications and will address topics of novel issues.  During the three-day conference, we will listen to recognized authorities in the field as they discuss recent advances, difficulties, and breakthroughs in the field of recycling and reuse of materials and their products.  The conference will feature keynote addresses, a number of plenary sessions, invited talks and contributed lectures focusing on specific tenets of recycling and reuse of materials and their products. Additionally, there will be several poster sessions, and four best poster presentations will be selected for the award.

In view of your excellent contributions to the field of recycling and reuse of materials and their products, we would like to welcome you to give an invited talk at the conference.  The scientific committee of the conference is aware of your published works in this field. We would appreciate if you could e-mail us a one-page abstract of the talk (in the MS Word format) at the earliest to the conference E mail ID: recycle@macromol.in. An appropriate title could be decided by you.

Important Information 

v  Start of Registration                                             -           15^th January 2011

v  Deadline for the Submission of Abstract            -           1^st July 2011

During the conference there will be a brain storming discussion meeting in order to submit a joint project to European Union under the Seventh Frame Work of EU-India-China programme (Fp7) for funding between your country, India, China and Europe. We will also discuss other projects between India and rest of the world such as DST-NSF, DST-DAAD, Indo-French, DST-JSPS, etc etc. DST-India has agreement with most of the counties for joint collaboration.

I am glad to inform you that the editor of the Journal entitled “Agriculture, Food and Analytical Bacteriology” (http://afabjournal.com/) has agreed to publish peer reviewed papers presented at the conference.  We also got acceptance from Apple Academic Press, Canada (www. http://www.appleacademicpress.com/news-events.html) to edit a book on “Advances in Recycling and Reuse of Materials and Products" based on the papers published in the conference.

Please note that due to budgetary constraints, we are unable to provide any financial assistance. The registration fee for the conference is fixed at an affordable rate.  The following is the registration feel till 15^th June 2011. Those who register after 15^th June 2011 has to pay an additional amount of 10 % extra as the registration fee.
