Biobased furanic derivatives for sustainable development is now online and free to access until the end of March 2022

05 Jan 2022

We are delighted to announce that the Green Chemistry themed collection Biobased furanic derivatives for sustainable development is now online and free to access until the end of March 2022.

This themed collection aims to gather the most advanced research in the area of furanic building blocks. These furanic platform molecules can be further derivatized and employed in various applications (thermoplastics; resins; biofuels; fine chemistry; green solvents, etc.). Their end-life (recycling, biodegradation), within a circular rational, is also a sparking field of research activity. Therefore, the biomass origin of these furanic molecules and the Green Chemistry principles that are employed to prepare, modify and dispose these molecules fit with the expectation of the journal.

Guest Edited by Drs Andreia F. Sousa, François Jérôme and Nathanaël Guigo, this collection reviews the very recent achievements of furanic derivatives in various areas of green and sustainable chemistry.

CO2 Utilisation Green Chemistry themed issue now online and free to access

09 Jun 2021

By Daphne Houston.

We are delighted to announce that the Green Chemistry themed issue CO₂ Utilisation is now online and free to access until the end of August 2021.

The massive consumption of fossil fuels, among other human activities, has released substantial amounts of CO₂ into the atmosphere, provoking both global warming and dramatic climate changes. As such, carbon dioxide capture, removal and utilisation continues to attract significant attention. As an ideal carbon source, efficient transformation of CO₂ enables the sustainable synthesis of high value-added chemicals and fuels.

Guest Edited by Professor Da-Gang Yu and Professor Liangnian He, this collection reviews the very recent achievements of CO₂utilisation in various areas of green and sustainable chemistry.

The Summer School does offer the unique opportunity to bring together a number of experts in the field of Green Chemistry and young researchers. This synergy of competencies is a valuable occasion to promote and facilitate diffusion and transfer of the knowledge in this emerging and evolving field.

AIMS

Teach postgraduate students and post-doctoral researchers in chemistry and associated disciplines from all over the world, either from academia or industry.
Indicate Green Chemistry as fundamental tool to approach pollutant reduction at source.
Give a view of the state-of-the-art on Green Chemistry researches in the last decades.
Facilitate a profitable and continuous exchange of ideas and information among the students, the instructors and the different stakeholders for the establishment of long-lasting scientific relationships. All these students will be ambassadors of Green Chemistry in their institutions, in their Countries, and to their peers, and so invited to form international networks of scientists.

The Summer School is organized and managed by the Green Sciences for Sustainable Development Foundation (www.gssd-foundation.org), a non-profit Foundation based in Venice, Italy.
