The objective of EMEC conferences is to bring together scientists from diverse fields. In this spirit, the EMEC meeting scholarships aims to motivate young scientists to fully participate in the conference and shall facilitate an international scientific exchange of PhD candidates and junior scientists during the meeting.
Beginning in 2015 the Association for Chemistry and the Environment (ACE) has offered a number of scholarships for MSc and PhD students to participate the annual European Meeting on Environmental Chemistry (EMEC). The scholarship covers the conference fee and additionally travel as well as accommodation costs of up to 500 €. To make an application, candidates should send an application to the Prof. Dr. Josef Caslavsky ( caslavsky@fch.vut.cz). The application should comprise of the following elements:
The Prince Sultan Bin Abdulaziz International Prize for Water (PSIPW) is a scientific prize with a focus on innovation. Established in 2002 by HRH Crown Prince Sultan Bin Abdulaziz, it rewards the efforts made by scientists, inventors and research organizations around the world, focusing on water-related scientific innovation. Five prizes are bestowed every two years. PSIPW sponsors a number of international conferences and exhibitions around the world and it have initiated an event participation grant programme.
PSIPW, besides being Diamond Sponsor of this EMEC edition, will offer a 500 EUR scholarship for a MSc, PhD student or young scientist in partnership with the organisation of the conference. The recipient will be chosen based on three criteria: (i) suitability of the recipient to make a positive contribution to, or benefit from, the event, (ii) need of the recipient, (iii) innovative nature of the recipient's work (water-related studies).
This scholarship will be announced during the Closing Ceremony of EMEC 18.
The organisation of the EMEC 18 in Porto (Portugal), will grant two awards to outstanding contributions of young scientists, sponsored by Springer.
One award for the best Oral Presentation (200 EUR book voucher) and another for the best Poster (100 EUR book voucher) will be announced during the Closing Ceremony of EMEC 18.
A Virtual Special Issue of the Elsevier Journal "Science of the Total Environment" (STOTEN) (Impact Factor 2016 = 4.900) will be devoted to the the EMEC18 conference and will include peer-reviewed articles, highlighting the scientific program of the event.
To have this possibility, participants should send an email to emec18@chemistry.pt, until November 26th, expressing their willingness to publish. The most promising communications will be selected by the Scientific Committee of EMEC18, and the respective authors will later be invited to submit a full paper for normal peer-reviewing, following the author guidelines of STOTEN.
The official language of the meeting is English. Each participant can submit up to two abstracts as presenting author. However, only one can be considered for oral communication.

Porto is served by the Francisco Sá Carneiro International Airport (OPO), which is located about 11 km (7 miles) north of the city centre. The airport is used by many of the major regular airlines, as well as low cost airlines. Additional information about the Porto airport can be found in website. In case you arrive through Lisbon Airport (which is more than 300 km from Porto), you can either get a 45 min connection flight to Porto with TAP Portugal or the low-cost Ryanair, or you can catch a fast train (train AP) that departs every 1-2 hours and takes about 2 h 45 min . To reach the train station, just take the metro from Lisbon airport to the train station Lisboa-Oriente. The train to Porto stops at Porto-Campanhã train station, where you can catch the Metro to Trindade station.
The Metro of Porto (mixed surface and underground system) operates in five different lines labelled from A to E and colours differentiate these lines. Line E (violet) serves Porto Airport. The airport stop is located near the terminal and the Metro departs every 20 min. The trip to the city centre takes 26 minutes. You can buy the rechargeable ticket (Andante) at the automatic ticket machine at the station (Z4 ticket: 1.85€ + 0.60€ the first time you buy the Andante rechargeable ticket). If you want to go to the meeting venue or nearby hotels, you should take the metro (line E) and leave it in “Casa da Música”. To go to the main city centre square, nearby most other hotels, you should leave it in “Trindade” and take the Line D ("Santo Ovídio" direction) until “Aliados”. If you change Metro line you can use the same ticket within 1 hour, but you must validate it every time, before entering the Metro. More information and a journey planner can be found in www.en.metrodoporto.pt. In case you prefer, taxi services are available outside of the arrivals hall of the airport. Travelling from the airport to the city centre by taxi takes 20 to 30 min and costs 20/25 €.
Porto offers a large variety of accommodation. Here you can find a list of some recommended hotels.

Visit to Ferreira Port Wine cellars Tuesday, November 28th 18:30
EMEC18 offers all participants one exciting tour to the Ferreira Port Wine cellars. Built by a family of winemakers from the Douro region in 1751, the Ferreira house possessed a rich tradition and a prominent role in the history of Port Wine. In fact, it is the only major Porto Wine house to have remained in Portuguese hands since its foundation. Dona Antónia Adelaide Ferreira contributed significantly to the consolidation of the brand. A legendary woman with a unique personality, who became a myth and a symbol of strength, facing the adversities of the nineteenth-century Douro conditions, including the Phylloxera plague. Ferreira cellars invite you to discover a brand over 250 years old, a symbol of the highest quality that encapsulates Portugal's heart and soul.

After the dinner, EMEC18 attendees will also have the oportunity to enjoy some national and international music and dance. This will be the perfect time to relax and have fun!!!
