Preface
Energy demand has been rising remarkably due to increasing population and
urbanization.Globaleconomyandsocietyaresignificantlydependentontheenergy
availability because it touches every facet of human life and its activities.
Transportation and power generation are major examples of energy. Without the
transportation by millions of personalized and mass transport vehicles and avail-
ability of 24(cid:1)7 power, human civilization would not have reached contemporary
living standards.
The first international conference on ‘Sustainable Energy and Environmental
Challenges’ (SEEC-2017) was organized under the auspices of ‘International
Society for Energy and Environmental Sustainability’ (ISEES) by the ‘Center of
Innovative and Applied Bioprocessing’ (CIAB), Mohali, from 26 to 28 February
2017.ISEESwasfoundedatIITKanpurinJanuary2014withanaimofspreading
knowledgeinthefieldsofenergy,environment,sustainabilityandcombustion.The
society’s goal is to contribute to the development of clean, affordable and secure
energy resources and a sustainable environment for the society and to spread
knowledge in the above-mentioned areas and awareness about the environmental
challenges,whichtheworldisfacingtoday.ISEESisinvolvedinvariousactivities

Thesocietyalsorecognizestheoutstandingworkdonebytheyoungscientistsand
engineers for their contributions in these fields by conferring those awards under
various categories.
This conference provided a platform for discussions between eminent scientists
andengineersfromvariouscountriesincludingIndia,USA,SouthKorea,Norway,
Malaysia and Australia. In this conference, eminent speakers from all over the
world presented their views relating to different aspects of energy, combustion,
emissions and alternative energy resource for sustainable development and clean
environment through accuratemonitoring andcontrol.The conferencestartedwith
four mini-symposiums on very topical themes, which included (i) New Fuels and
Advanced Engine Combustion, (ii) Sustainable Energy, (iii) Experimental and
Numerical Combustion and (iv) Environmental Remediation and Rail Road

environmental sustainability and a panel discussion on 'Challenges, Opportunities
and Directions of Technical Education and Research in the Area of Energy,
Environment and Sustainability' to wrap up the three-day technical extravaganza.
The conference included 2 plenary talks, 12 keynote talks, 42 invited talks from
prominent scientists, 49 contributed talks and 120 posters. A total of 234 partici-
pants and speakers attended this three-day conference, which hosted Dr. V. K.
Saraswat,Member,NITIAayog,India,asachiefguest fortheawardceremonyof

Technologies; Waste to Wealth—Chemicals and Fuels; Energy Conversion
Systems; Numerical Simulation of Combustion Processes; Alternate Fuels for IC
Engines; Sprays and Heterogeneous Combustion of Coal/Biomass; Biomass

Almost all aspects related to environmental monitoring and control heavily rely
on sensory systems which are critical to the maintainability of a good and safe
environment with respect to time. This becomes more relevant and an important
research theme as environment is being continuously challenged by emission and
pollutionfrompowersystems,mobilitysector,industrialsector,medicalsector,etc.
Inshort,whereverthereisanissuerelatedtowastemanagementanddisposability,
the detrimental nature of such waste and their improper management needs to be
sustainably monitored. If not monitored and addressed appropriately, such hazards
may cause severe challenges for the health and well-being of living systems.
Preface vii
Technology emerged in different length scales has today led to the realization of
precise and accurate sensory systems which are easily deployable and rapid in
multitasking. In fact, the state-of-the-art research evolved the sensor domain into
onewhereeventheveryminusculeandtracequantityofananalytealmostuptothe
levelofasinglemoleculewhichmayotherwiseposeanenvironmentalthreatcanbe
monitored through sensitive instrumentation and well-thought-out detection
scheme.
This monograph isintended for researchers related tosensor design, fabrication
anditsvariousapplicationsforthepurposeofhealthandenvironmentmonitoringin
a very large domain. We hope that the book would be of great interest to the
professionals and postgraduate students involved in research related to advanced
sensing techniques, fabrications and experimentation. The main objective of this
monograph is to promote a better and more accurate understanding of sensing
mechanisms and recent progress across all length scales in this domain.
