Engineering and sustainable development are intrinsically linked. All capital plant and every consumable product depends on an engineering input through design, manufacture and operation, if not for the product itself then for the equipment required to process and transport the raw materials and the final product. Many aspects of sustainable development depend directly on appropriate and timely actions by engineers. Engineering is an extended process of analysis, synthesis, evaluation and execution and, therefore, it is argued that engineers must be involved from the outset of any proposal to develop sustainable solutions. Engineering embraces many disciplines and truly sustainable solutions are usually inter-disciplinary in nature. Sustainable solutions have not only an environmental dimension but also economic and social dimensions, thus extending the multi-disciplinary nature beyond engineering. The International Journal of Sustainable Engineering is predicated on the need for engineers to have access to a source of information and an opportunity to share, through publication, new ideas and solutions for sustainable development. Researchers from both academia and industry are invited to submit papers on their recent research into problems related to reducing the environmental impacts of engineered systems, processes and products. The International Journal of Sustainable Engineering also welcomes papers that include economic and social components that complement the engineering dimension, consider the management of sustainable engineering, or address the modelling of sustainable engineering solutions. Topics may include, but are not limited to:

* Engineering design for sustainable development
* Sustainable technology innovation
* Life-cycle engineering
* Energy conservation and low-carbon manufacturing
* Sustainable power engineering and renewable energy technologies
* Waste minimisation, remanufacturing, reuse and recycling technologies
* Sustainable material development
* Sustainable packaging solutions
* Sustainable process engineering
* Environmental management and ISO standards
* Water engineering solutions for developing countries
* Sustainable construction for the built environment
* Product versus service paradigms
* Managing use and consumption
* Sustainable supply chain management
* Sustainable transport engineering
* Sustainable business models
* Engineering education for sustainable development
