To celebrate the 10 year anniversary of ChemSusChem, we as the chairmen of the editorial board are writing this Essay to summarize important scientific contributions to our journal during the past decade in terms of sustainable science and technology. Bibliometric analysis of published papers show that biorefinery, solar energy conversion, energy-storage materials, and carbon dioxide utilizations attracted most attention in this area. According to our own knowledge and understanding and from the sustainability point of view, we are also pointing out those research directions that we believe can play key roles in the future chemistry to meet the grand challenges in energy and environment. Hopefully, these perspective aspects will provide the readers with new angles to look at the chemistry in the coming decades and inspire the development of new technologies to make our society sustainable.
为庆祝《化学可持续发展》创刊10周年,作为编辑委员会主席,我们撰写这篇文章,以总结过去十年间在可持续科学与技术方面对我们期刊的重要科学贡献。已发表论文的文献计量分析表明,生物炼制、太阳能转换、储能材料以及二氧化碳利用在该领域受到了最多关注。基于我们自身的知识与理解,并从可持续发展的角度出发,我们还指出了那些我们认为在未来化学中能够发挥关键作用、以应对能源与环境重大挑战的研究方向。希望这些前瞻性的内容能为读者提供新的视角,来审视未来几十年的化学,并激发新技术的发展,以实现我们社会的可持续发展。
