Through research and training of research leaders, universities are at the forefront of finding sustainable social, economic, environmental, and technical solutions to global problems. The necessity for environmentally-friendly technologies
in the future will require the expertise of engineers by incorporating sustainability
into products, processes, technology systems, and services, which involves the
design for energy efficiency, mass efficiency, and low environmental emissions.
Dr. Abu and the contributors of this book have demonstrated their commitment
and responsibility as green guardians as well as research leaders in sustainability.
I truly hope that this book will enlighten and empower the campus community and
public to make the difference toward the achievement of SDGs by 2030.
