Preface

On behalf of the editorial members, I would like to convey my heartiest congratulations and thank you to all authors who had successfully completed their original work piece, participated and hence contributed to the conference. The conference organisers also would like to acknowledge and appreciate all internal and external reviewers who had spent their precious time in reading and suggesting improvements on the selected manuscripts. Selected manuscripts were broadly inclined to the conference theme which was “Synergising Sustainable Technologies for Future Generation”, and again these subjects are either directly or indirectly related to the general chemical engineering subjects. Several selected and edited papers will be published in the “ICGSCE 2014” conference proceedings with approval from established publisher, such as Springer. Other selected and edited paper will be published in the Malaysian Journal of Analytical Sciences, and in the Materials Science and Engineering Journal, published by Transtech publications. Finally, and again, on behalf of editors, I would like to thanks the conference organisers for their trust and confidence in the editorial committee. The acknowledgment is als
