In celebration of the 10-year anniversaries of Chem and the broader Cell Press physical sciences portfolio, as well as this year’s Nobel Prize in metal-organic frameworks, this forum will bring together leaders who are advancing the field of separations through intricate and beautifully designed chemistry and materials science. Over the years, many of Chem’s most exciting and widely cited papers have centered on reticular chemistry and porous materials. This influence has spread to journals like Chem Catalysis, Cell Reports Physical Science, Matter, and Cell Reports Sustainability, all of which have featured impactful research on related frameworks.
In keeping with the tradition of the chemistry portfolio, we’ve chosen a topic that bridges the fundamental chemistry of these molecules and materials with their vital applications in separations, which is a key driver for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Remarkably, separations processes account for about 15% of all global energy consumption. Reticular chemistry, as pioneered through the creation of metal-organic frameworks, offers a unique platform for designing materials with custom pore structures and targeted functionalities. These advances are opening new horizons for highly selective and energy-efficient separations, transforming industries from chemical manufacturing to water.
