The 1st International Symposium on BioEnergy and Environment (BEE 2017) will be held in Tianjin, China, on July 9-12, 2017. The symposium will be hosted by Tianjin University, which is the first modern-style University in China, established in 1895 initially named "Peiyang University".

BioEnergy is foreseen to play an important role in near-future energy picture in particular for oil and gas market. However, major disputes, such as food supply security, environmental and ecological uncertainties and associated biodiversity, are arising and spreading among politicians and the public. These disputes may significantly hinder BioEnergy development in the dimension of technical and policy aspects.

This Symposium aims to provide an open platform for sharing information related to updated development of BioEnergy technologies and policy as well as associated environmental concerns, so as to promote interactions among academics, government and the industries.

The Symposium will include keynote speeches, invited lectures, selected oral presentations and posters. This Symposium would also encourage young researchers and postgraduate students to illustrate their academic viewpoints.
