Chemists across the industry and academia are driving innovation by integrating green chemistry and engineering principles into the design, manufacturing, and processes of chemicals. Join three recipients of the 2024 Green Chemistry Challenge Awards—a collaboration between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention and the American Chemical Society’s Green Chemistry Institute—as they share their impactful scientific achievements.What You Will Learn
How the development of three classes of bio-lubricant base oils with different properties can comparable or better performance to existing technologies
The impact of green hydrogen technology and how the dehydrogenation of Bio-Ethanol to Ethyl Acetate can supply about 40% of the manufacturing facility’s energy requirements
How an organically enhanced rock phosphate fertilizer can eliminate the need for acid processing, reduce waste, and deliver superior performance compared to conventional phosphate rock fertilizers
What are the Green Chemistry Challenge Awards and when is the nomination process for your next opportunity to win the award
Conversation between Dr Amy S. Cannon and Prof. Francesca KertonWEBINAR Wednesday, 5 February 2025 | 2:00 PM GMT | 3:00 PM CET | 9:00 AM ESTThe path towards a sustainable society grounded in green chemistry and sustainability is often focused on changing practice within industry and catalyzing innovation and entrepreneurship within the technical sectors. New, greener technologies are required to address a range of sustainability challenges at the earliest stages of the product lifecycle and have found to have real, measurable impacts. In addition to the industrial innovation that needs to take place, innovation is also necessary within our educational systems. Without a pipeline of scientists trained with skills founded in principles of green chemistry, sustainability, and circularity, there will be little change. Beyond Benign is a non-profit organization that has been advancing green chemistry education throughout the education continuum for over a decade. As an organization that is mission-based, entrepreneurial vision is just as important as in for-profit companies – it is necessary in creating a sustainable organization that is capable of catalyzing real change. This presentation will share how a group of passionate individuals enable and empower others to be changes agents and implement greener practices within academia. This is the 3rd Webinar in this series on Chemistry Entrepreneurship.

The 35th Pure and Applied Chemistry International Conference (PACCON) will have the theme, “Chemistry for a Changing World." The conference holds the promise of unraveling new dimensions in scientific research and innovation, particularly in the field of chemistry. The Institute of Science at Suranaree University of Technology, known for its commitment to academic excellence and applicable, cutting-edge research, is honoured to host this stimulating and inspiring event that can be an instrument to reflect and materialise our commitment to our changing world. Co-organized by the Chemical Society of Thailand, the conference will have 12 scientific sessions and four special symposia on topics like emerging technologies for climate change, environmental chemistry and renewable energy, and polymer chemistry and biobased materials.PACCON2025 will be not only a platform for disseminating knowledge but also a catalyst for meaningful connections and collaborations among the participants.
Pittcon is a dynamic, international conference and exposition on laboratory science, a venue for presenting the latest advances in analytical research and scientific instrumentation, and a platform for continuing education and science-enhancing opportunity.At Pittcon, our goal is to advance scientific endeavor through collaboration, bringing together a world of knowledge to impact, enrich, and inspire the future of science. Pittcon is a catalyst for the exchange of information, a showcase of the latest advances in laboratory science, and a venue for international connectivity.Pittcon also offers networking opportunities, social events, and an environment that fosters knowledge and expands your network of scientific resources.Proceeds from each and every Pittcon directly fund science education and outreach. Over 90% of Pittcon’s net profit goes on to fund primary and secondary education, continuing education, scholarships, laboratory improvements, and outreach activities.
The Green and Sustainable Chemistry Conference is focused on inter- and transdisciplinary aspects of green and sustainable chemistry.Invited speakers will be joined by the finalists of the Chemistry for Climate Action Challenge, contributed talks, and posters for which abstracts are invited.Reasons to attend:
Interact with high-level speakers: including government representatives and leading researchers from industry and academia.
Gain a global perspective: coverage includes experience from the developed world and insight from developing countries.
Understand industry viewpoints: experts and thought-leaders from top chemical companies and organisations explore how industry can better demonstrate the value of 'green' and 'sustainable' across its value chains and to end consumers.
Present your latest research: Share your research as a short talk or in our lively poster sessions
Grow your professional network
Find out about the most environmentally sustainable innovations: hear from the winners of the Elsevier Foundation Chemistry for Climate Action Challenge.
Spreading sustainable chemistry worldwide: Share your experiences in research, teaching and good practice.

The ACS Graduate Student Symposium Planning Committee (GSSPC) presents "Bonds That Matter: Soft Materials for a Sustainable World" at the Spring 2025 ACS National Meeting in San Diego, CA. Sponsored by the Division of Chemical Education, the all-day symposium is entirely planned by graduate students, including topic selection, fundraising, recruiting speakers, advertising, and symposium logistics. The focus of the symposium is the production and processing of high performance, sustainable soft matter and its role in achieving a circular economy. This will include talks from leading experts and rising stars, along with a networking student poster session over lunch.

Time and time again, multidisciplinary research is touted as essential to innovation. That is why, from April 7-11, 2025, researchers working in seemingly unrelated fields will gather in Seattle, Washington to promote, share and discuss issues and developments across disciplines at the 2025 MRS Spring Meeting & Exhibit. Meeting venues include the Summit, the Seattle Convention Center's brand new addition, as well as the Hyatt Regency Seattle.The 2025 MRS Spring Meeting is the key forum to present research to an interdisciplinary and international audience. It provides a window on the future of materials science, and offers an opportunity for researchers—from students and postdoctoral fellows, to Nobel and Kavli Prize Laureates—to exchange technical information and network with colleagues.
Emerald Isle Conference on Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering.EIC 2025 QUB Belfast 9-11th April 2025.
