Preface of ICANSE 2024

Nuclear science and engineering have become increasingly important, especially with global challenges related to energy, health, and the environment. The International Conference on Advances in Nuclear Science and Engineering (ICANSE) is conducted and carried out as a vital forum for scientists, researchers, students, and practitioners to share the latest ideas, knowledge, and findings in nuclear science and engineering. Indonesia faces a growing demand for clean and reliable energy. Nuclear energy presents a potential solution to meet this demand while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Utilizations of nuclear energy have been used not only for energy used application but also for non-energy application such as co-generation system for water desalination, hydrogen production, for coal gasification and liquefaction applications and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) applications. In addition, the applications for non-energy applications for health and medicine, pharmaceuticals, nuclear batteries, metal industry, agricultural environment, livestock, and so on based on the radioisotope utilization. As the regularly seminar, the 7th International Conference on Advances in Nuclear Science and Engineering, (ICANSE) 2024 as the series international conference since 2007, aims at summarizing recent research activities relevant to the advanced development of application in the nuclear science and engineering and facilitate communication among relevant experts. After join symposium between Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) and Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) at 2005, the conference of ICANSE was established based on one of two years event 2007, 2009 and 2011. It was organized by Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB), National Nuclear Energy Agency (BATAN) and supported by ministry of education of Indonesia and COE-INES and CRINES of Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech). Participants, invited speaker and contributor speaker are invited from academia in university, research center and governmental organization as well as industry and public who interested in nuclear science and technology. In this 7 th ICANSE 2024, as an international conference after long break after covid-19 pandemic, the event is held In conjunction with Annual Meeting and Business Nuclear Society, organized by Bandung Institute of Technology - Department of Physics, Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering (ITB) Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA), Center For Nuclear Science, Technology and Innovation (PSTIN), Bandung Institute of technology. The event is sponsored by LPPM ITB, PT Pertamina (Persero), Indonesia and Rosatom Russia and some supporting organizations Institute for Science and Technology Development (LPIT), Bandung Institute of technology, Indonesian Nuclear Society Association (HIMNI), Indonesian Nuclear Society (HIMNI), Research Organization for Nuclear Energy, National Research and Innovation Agency (BRIN), The theme of the International Conference on Advances in Nuclear Science and Engineering (ICANSE) 2024 is “Optimizing Strategy of Nuclear Sciences and Technology Utilization on Global NZE, Energy Security, Health, and Economy Growth”.
