The 18th Conference Process Integration, Modelling and Optimisation for Energy Saving and Pollution Reduction (PRES 2015), held at Kuching, Malaysia last August 23-27, 2015. The conference was well attended by big names in the Process Systems Engineering (PSE) field where most of the editors are plenary speakers. I was able to go there together with researchers at De la Salle University led by Dr. Raymond R. Tan, Vice-Chancellor for Research and Innovation. I was able to present my work entitled "Fuzzy Mathematical Programming Approach in the Optimal Design of an Algal Bioenergy Park" as an oral technical presentation. Mr. Charles B. Felix, one of my masters student in Mechanical Engineering was able to present our work entitled "Strategic site selection of microalgae industry in the Philippines using Analytic Hierarchy Process" as poster presentation. Kuching, Malaysia is known for its ethnic culture and its spices.
