Read now the Editorial for the "Measuring green chemistry: methods, models, and metrics" themed collection ?? ??https://lnkd.in/eZ8fywmh This cross-journal collection intends to create a virtual and live place to collect scientific publications dedicated to measuring improvements in terms of sustainability, including contributions that propose and apply green metrics and that underline their importance in terms of their teaching and dissemination. All papers included were personally selected by Green Chemistry's Board Members André Bardow (ETH Zürich) and Serenella Sala (European Commission - Joint Research Centre), Green Chemistry's Associate Editor Luigi Vaccaro (Università degli Studi di Perugia) and Green Chemistry's Chair Javier Pérez-Ramírez (ETH Zürich) The collection includes, but is not limited to, examples of application of green chemistry principles as well as methods for measuring their efficacy in improving chemicals or in selecting a preferred alternative, such as E factor, green analytical procedure Index (GAPI) processes, process mass intensity, eco-scale, techno-economic analysis, life-cycle assessment, carbon balance analysis. The collection entails example of application of individual metrics and indicators as well as multicriteria assessment and addresses as well green chemistry education.

We are delighted to announce that our newest Sustainable Energy & Fuels themed collection, "Next-generation battery technologies beyond lithium" is now open for submissions! This?Sustainable Energy & Fuels?themed collection, guest edited by Chunmei B. (University of Colorado Boulder, USA), Guillermo álvarez Ferrero (Humboldt University, Germany), Marta Sevilla (Instituto Nacional del Carbón – CSIC, Spain) and Feixiang Wu (Central South University, China) will highlight alternatives to lithium-based battery designs and technologies. We would welcome work on topics including (but not limited to) alternative alkali and alkali-earth metal batteries (including metal-ion, metal-air and sulfur-based systems), all solid-state batteries, multivalent batteries, and other technologies for non-lithium ion energy storage (e.g., redox flow batteries or dual-ion batteries). We especially value studies that prioritize sustainability as a central focus and encourage life cycle assessment studies. The deadline for submissions is 30th April 2025. For more information about the collection, how to submit or how to get in touch with us, please see here: https://lnkd.in/d8t_ZhBb We look forward to receiving your work!
