This book presents the selected papers presented at the Third International Congress of Applied Chemistry & Environment (ICACE–3) that took place on May 27-29, 2022. The topics of the conference covers topics from the thematic sections: (1) Environment and Climate Change; (2) Green Chemistry and Natural Substances; (3) Biobased Materials and Nanomaterials; (4) Sustainable Textiles and Clean Processes. For this edition of the conference, it is devoted to present the advantage to use annual plants and/or lignocellulose material as sources for production of fibers and/or cellulose derivatives and/or nanocellulose material with focus on their processing, properties and applications. This book benefits lecturers, students, researchers and industrialists who are working in the field of natural fiber especially in order to preserve the forest resource and to satisfy the increasing demand in pulps.

About the Author

Dr. Ramzi Khiari is a senior lecturer at the Higher Institute of Technological Studies in Ksar-Hellal (Monastir, Tunisia) in the department of Textile Engineering. He was graduated in 2005 at the National Engineering School of Monastir in the specialty of Textile Chemistry, before getting a Master degree (2007) from the same institution. Then, he performed a sandwich PhD thesis (2010) between ENIM from University of Monastir in Tunisia and Grenoble INP in France. Finally, in 2017, he has got the diploma of “Habilitation Universitaire” from University of Monastir and 2020 he has got the diploma “Habilitation � diriger des Recherches” in Grenoble INP. His research interests focus on the valorization of biomass at multi-scale levels namely: fibers, nanocellulose, lignin, hemicelluloses and their used as potential raw material in several industrial applications (Textile, papermaking, polymeric materials, composites and nanocomposites). A particular focus is given for vegetal biomass from annual plants, and particularly agricultural residues and industrial wastes. During his career, he coordinated several research projects, mainly projects with industry, and supervised various post-graduation students. He has been member of scientific committees, organizing committees and participated in national/international evaluation boards.

Beside that he is also member of International Advisory Board of Springer Series on Polymer and Composite Materials. He worked as guest editor of special issues of SN Applied Science, Current Organic Synthesis and Current Analytical Chemistry, International Journal of Polymer Science, IOP Conference Proceeding. He also in Editorial Board Member of Journal of Polymers and The Environment, Journal of Plastics Technology, Applied Science and Engineering Progress Journal, Journal of Asian Science, Technology and Innovation and the Recent Innovations in Chemical Engineering. He is life member of Asian Polymer Association, and Malaysian Society for Engineering and Technology. He is also member of Society of Plastics Engineers, American Chemical Society, Athens Institute for Education and Research, and International Association of Advanced Materials. Besides that, he is also reviewer of several high-impact international peer-reviewed journals of Elsevier, Springer, Wiley, Saga, ACS, RSC, Frontiers, etc. Presently, he is supervising 7 Ph.D. students (4 Ph.D. as Chairman, and 3 Ph.D. as Member) and 3 Master’s as Member in the fields of hybrid composites, green composites, nanocomposites, natural fiber-reinforced composites, nanocellulose, etc. 32 Ph.D. and 14 Master’s students graduated under his supervision in 2014–2022. He has several research grants at university, national, and international levels on polymer composites of around 6 million Malaysian ringgits (USD 1.36 Million). He also delivered plenary and invited talks in international conferences related to composites in India, Turkey, Malaysia, Thailand, the United Kingdom, France, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and China. Besides that, he is also a member of technical committees of several national and international conferences on composites and material science. Recently Dr. Mohammad Jawaid received Excellent Academic Award in Category of International Grant-Universiti Putra Malaysia-2018 and also Excellent Academic Staff Award in industry High Impact Network (ICAN 2019) Award. Beside that Gold Medal-Community and Industry Network (JINM Showcase) at Universiti Putra Malaysia. He also won Silver medals in Malaysian Technology expo (MTE-2021), MTE-SDG International Innovation Awards-2021 and International Technology Expo (ITEX-2022). He also Received Publons Peer Review Awards 2017, and 2018 (Materials Science), Certified Sentinel of science Award Receipient-2016 (Materials Science) and 2019 (Materials Science and Cross field).
