The 2023 International Conference on Chemical, Energy Science and Environmental Engineering (CESEE 2023) was held in Sanya, China during April 14-16, 2023. Considering travel restrictions, the conference was held in a hybrid format, including both on-site and cloud meetings. This was the first CESEE conference, intended to be repeated annually.This conference aimed to provide an attractive platform for academics, scientists, researchers, experts, entrepreneurs, and students to express and discuss their interests in chemical, energy and environmental engineering. The participants were from almost every part of the world, with various background such as academia, industry, and well-known entrepreneurs. More than 30 participants attended the conference online and offline, including China, Canada, Belgium, Argentina, Malaysia, Turkey, Uzbekistan and more.

The conference also had 2 technical sessions and 1 poster session. CESEE 2023 became an effective communication platform for all the participants who took the opportunity to share their research results and discuss potential scientific and engineering developments from their work. This contributed to the success of the conference.The conference proceedings are a compilation of the accepted papers and represent an interesting outcome of the conference. All papers in the proceedings have passed the vigorous review process involving reviewers by the international technical committee. The variety of research topics presented in the conference and novelty exhibited in the papers published in the proceedings demonstrated the impact of CESEE 2023.List of Committees are available in this pdf.
