ICAFBE 2012 - The International Conference on Agricultural, Food and Biological Engineering (ICAFBE 2012)

The 2012 International Conference on Agricultural, Food and Biological Engineering (ICAFBE 2012) will take place in Guangzhou, China, May 11-13, 2012.
ICAFBE 2012 aims to bring together academic scientists, leading engineers, industry researchers and scholar students to exchange and share their experiences and research results about all aspects of Agricultural, Food and Biological Engineering, and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted. A key aspect of this conference is the strong mixture of academia and industry. This allows for the free exchange of ideas and challenges faced by these two key stakeholders and encourage future collaboration between members of these groups. All papers, both invited and contributed, will be refereed by two or three referees.
After refereeing process, all accepted papers will be published on the international journal of
Journal of Biobased Materials and Bioenergy (SCIE Journal, IF 1.402)
Advanced Science Letters (SCIE Journal, IF 1.253)
Sensor Letters (SCIE Journal, IF 0.63)
Journal of Bionanoscience (EI COMPENDEX)
