Abstract submission deadline : 28 November 2025

Author notification: 30 January 2026

Author registration and early booking deadline: 6 March 2026

The Green and Sustainable Chemistry Conference is focused on inter- and transdisciplinary aspects of green and sustainable chemistry. Contributions for talks and posters clearly demonstrating a link to green and/ or sustainable chemistry within the conference topics are invited.

Please see detailed guidelines for submission here.

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.

Supporting Publications

Current Opinion in Green and Sustainable Chemistry

In Current Opinion in Green and Sustainable Chemistry, we help the reader by providing in a systematic manner:

1. The views of experts on current advances in Green and Sustainable Chemistry in a clear and readable form.

2. Evaluations of the most interesting papers, annotated by experts, from the great wealth of original publications.

The subject Green and Sustainable Chemistry includes all chemical aspects along the life cycle of chemicals as well chemical products and materials e.g. resources, synthesis, use and after life issues. It aims on better understanding where and how chemistry itself can be made more sustainable and whereby chemistry can contribute to sustainability in general.

Current Opinion in Green and Sustainable Chemistry
Sustainable Chemistry and Pharmacy

Sustainable Chemistry and Pharmacy publishes research that is related to chemistry, pharmacy and sustainability science in a forward oriented manner. It provides a unique forum for the publication of innovative research on the intersection and overlap of chemistry and pharmacy on the one hand and sustainability on the other hand. This includes contributions related to increasing sustainability of chemistry and pharmaceutical science and industries itself as well as their products in relation to the contribution of these to sustainability itself. As an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary journal it addresses all sustainability related issues along the life cycle of chemical and pharmaceutical products form resource related topics until the end of life of products.

Sustainable Chemistry and Pharmacy
Sustainable Chemistry for Climate Action

Sustainable Chemistry for Climate Action will cover the issues affecting climate and the environment and the pivotal role that sustainable chemistry has to play in solving them.

All authors of accepted contributions to the Green and Sustainable Chemistry Conference in Pune are invited to submit a manuscript to a special issue of Sustainable Chemistry for Climate Action

Submit your manuscript here and select VSI: 9GSC when you reach the Article Type step in the submission process.
