2021 International Conference on Fluid and Chemical Engineering (ICFCE 2021) was scheduled to be held in Wuhan, China during October 29-30, 2021. Due to the continuing effect of Covid-19 epidemic, after the discussion of the conference committee, ICFCE 2021 will be postponed to be held on 19th November 2021 as an online conference. Organized by Hubei Zhongke Institute of Geology and Environment Technology, ICFCE 2021 intends to invite worldwide famous scientists, experts, scholars, and researchers for academic presentations. ICFCE 2021 proceeding is a collection of outstanding submissions in the field of biofluid mechanics, chemically reacting fluids and combustion, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), experimental fluid mechanics, flow through porous media, fluidsolid interactions (FSI), geophysical fluid dynamics, granular/suspension flows, heat and mass transfer, hydrodynamics, physical, theoretical and computational chemistry, chemical engineering fundamentals, chemical reaction engineering, chemical engineering equipment design and process design, thermodynamics, catalysis & reaction engineering, particulate systems, crystallization, etc. 28 articles were selected from 58 submissions after peer-review, and authors participated in ICFCE 2021 with oral presentations and posters, promoting the communication among researchers and experts from institutes and universities, including Dalian University of Technology, Liaoning University of Technology School of Mechanical Engineering and Automation, University of Science and Technology of China, China North Engine Research Institute, etc. Cordial gratitude is delivered to Technical Program Committee of ICFCE 2021 for the professional work on guarantying the high standard of conference as well as the proceedings. We believe the proceedings will enhance the exchange of ideas and state-of-art knowledge on Fluid and Chemical Engineering. List of Technical Committee, Chair, Editor, International Committee Members are available in this pdf.

The “3rd International Conference on Advances in Civil Engineering (ICACE-2021)” conducted virtually on 25th and 26th June 2021 by the Civil Engineering Department KL Deemed to be University, Andhra Pradesh, India. The ICACE-2021 provided a two-day research extravagance with the perfect blend of keynote addresses by prominent speakers from premier institution across the globe, followed by oral presentations by the authors which became the platform in networking the opportunities for collaborations and partnerships which will drive wide recognition and adds value to the enlisted career profiles from the world’s brightest minds in engineering and technology. This platform will eventually benefit the young research mind to bring forth the ideas and develop them into a solution for the future world. The conference aims to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners from both academia as well as industry to meet and share cutting-edge development in the field. The IC-ACE 2021 received 250 papers in the regular and industrial tracks and based on over 450 reviews from the program committee and external reviewers, 115 papers have been accepted for proceedings. The entire proceedings include 115 papers published as part of the ICACE-2021. Each paper, regardless of track, received at least 2 reviews. The success of ICACE-2021 depends completely on the effort, talent, and energy of researchers in the field of Civil Engineering who have written and submitted papers on a variety of topics. Praise is also deserved for the program committee members and external reviewers who have invested significant time in analyzing and assessing multiple papers, who hold and maintain a high standard of quality for this conference. Additional thanks are given to the ICACE-2021 organization staff, the members of the program committees, and reviewers. These Proceedings will furnish the researchers, academicians, and industry persons of the world with an excellent reference book. We trust also that this will be an impetus to stimulate further study and research in all these areas. We thank all authors and participants for their contributions. List of Chief Patrons, Patrons, Conference Chairs, Convenors, Organizing Secretaries, Advisory Board, Technical Committee, Organizing Committee and Editorial Committee are available in this pdf.

In the last two decades, scientific methodologies for the prediction of the design, performance and classification of fragrance mixtures have been developed at the Laboratory of Separation and Reaction Engineering. This review intends to give an overview of such developments. It all started with the question: what do we smell? The Perfumery Ternary Diagram enables us to determine the dominant odor for each perfume composition. Evaporation and 1D diffusion model is analyzed based on vapor-liquid equilibrium and Fick’s law for diffusion giving access to perfume performance parameters. The effect of matrix and skin is addressed and the trail of perfumes analyzed. Classification of perfumes with the perfumery radar is discussed. The methodology is extended to flavor and taste engineering. Finally, future research directions are suggested.
