Abstract

The Fourth International Conference on Green Energy and Environment (The 4th ICoGEE 2022) was organized by the Faculty of Engineering - Universitas Bangka Belitung. We planned The 4th ICoGEE 2022 to held on October 11th - 12th, 2022, in Pangkalpinang, Indonesia. However, the COVID-19 pandemic that is still engulfing various countries has hampered diverse gathering and traveling activities. Therefore, The 4th ICoGEE 2022 has been held virtually using the Zoom Meeting platform.The 4th ICoGEE 2022 is a scientific conference involving various disciplines that aims to create innovations related to the development of science and technology to protect energy and the environment. Another goal of ICoGEE is to build a collaborative network between government, practitioners, and academics to solve problems in the energy and environmental sectors. Thus, this year’s ICoGEE carries the theme: “Smart and Sustainable Science and Technology for Green Energy and Environment Development.”Although held online, this conference was attended more than 100 researchers, engineers, and scientists from various institutions. There are more than 50 institutions from nine countries: Indonesia, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, UAE, Philippines, UK, China & Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) participating in The 4th ICoGEE 2022. The conference consists of two parts: keynote presentation (plenary) and oral presentation (parallel). There were 82 papers (after the review process) divided into three topics: Green Energy and Application, Environmental Science and Technology, and Energy and Environmental Management. During the oral presentation session, the participants were divided into academic groups according to the topic.We are very grateful because, in 2022, The 4th ICoGEE 2022 has keynote speakers from different countries and institutions who are experts in energy and environmental aspects. Our great honor is that four experts gave excellent keynote speeches: Prof. Misri Gozan as Vice President of Asian Federation of Biotechnology, Prof. Hadi Susanto from Khalifa University UAE, Assc. Prof. Diogenes Armando Pascua from University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines, and Krerkiat Sasiwimonrit, Ph.D from Rajamangala University of Technology Lanna Thailand.Although The 4th ICoGEE 2022 was held virtually, the conference can still achieve its primary purpose or benefit. All manuscripts published in the proceeding have been through a rigorous review to meet the requirement of high-quality papers.The committee wishes to acknowledge speakers and participants who attended this virtual conference. We are beyond glad as this pandemic situation, which has been going on for more than a year, would not let their spirit down to keep participating in this conference. Plenty of thanks are given to all persons who have helped and supported this conference.List of Chairman of Organizing Committee, Conference Committees are available in this Pdf.
