Sažetak
Environmental sustainability has been facing numerous challenges with increasing industrial and agricultural development. These challenges have also been strengthened by the increasing number of formulation of megacities with large population densities. The pandemic caused by the COVID-19 revealed the vulnerability of globalised and concentrated society and brought challenges to many environmental issues, in particular medical waste management and water pollution issues (Klemeš et al. 2000). The pandemic has been remarkably affecting people's social behaviour and lifestyle, which are correlated with the energy and water demand, mobility system, as well as the environment of the cities. Besides, these influences and other potential impacts are possible to remain even after the pandemic period in both social, economic, and environmental aspects. Facing those challenges, clean technologies and policies seeking the potential of resource consumption and environmental pollution reduction are of significant importance. The Conferences on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES) have been continually providing a platform for researchers and multi-stakeholders from academia, industries, and government to share knowledge and experiences in emerging and promising clean technologies and methods towards cleaner production and sustainable development. The conference covers a wide range of topics related to various aspects of sustainable development.
