Preface

This volume presents refereed papers based on the oral and poster presentations at the 25th International Conference Infrastructure and Environment, which was held from June 18 to 20, 2018, in Dobczyce, Poland. The conference was organized by the University of Agriculture in Krakow, Polish Academy of Sciences—Committee of Technical Rural Infrastructure and Association Infrastructure and Ecology of Rural Areas. The scope of the conference covers a variety of environmental issues in rural areas and how they could be solved through innovations in science and engineering. The development of agriculture and urbanization processes on the rural areas has raised the living standards on one hand (roads, sewage systems, water supply systems, etc.), but also the environmental degradation on the other. There is a need to intensify efforts to ensure the proper state of knowledge about these problems, particularly concerning rural areas. The scientific community is, therefore, searching for ways toward ecologically sustainable rural development. Discussing all these issues, this book offers a useful guide for researchers, academicians, prac
