The availability of energy-efficient and sustainable processes for chemical separations plays a crucial role in the large-scale production of fuels, chemicals, and pharmaceutical products. To address the complex scientific and technological challenges of chemical separations, it is essential to bring together diverse research communities and leaders in the field to discuss emerging concepts and approaches. The Gordon Research Conference (GRC) on Chemical Separations, scheduled for January 21-26, 2024, in Galveston, TX, will be an excellent opportunity for cross-disciplinary scientific discussions related to emerging concepts and methods in chemical separations. By fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange, these discussions can lead to the development of highly efficient and selective separation technologies. Such advancements have the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, lower the carbon footprint associated with chemicals and fuels manufacturing, and decrease the costs of desirable products. The collective efforts of researchers and industry professionals in this area can contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future. The support provided by the Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems will offset the attendance costs for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and early-career scientists, promoting the participation of a diverse group of attendees. The 2024 Chemical Separations GRC directly addresses the recommendations of the National Academies report, "A Research Agenda for Transforming Separation Science," emphasizing substantive interactions between the chemistry and chemical engineering separations research communities and integrating relevant concepts in research and education. The GRC format fulfills this objective by encouraging the sharing of cutting-edge, unpublished data, hosting highly-attended poster sessions, and fostering a collegial, interactive environment. Investigators from academia, national laboratories, and industry will be represented at this meeting. This GRC stands out among existing separations-focused conferences as it expands chemical separations discussions beyond analytical techniques, encompassing separation materials design, process scale-up, and operational considerations. This year also focuses on the challenges and opportunities of integrating chemical reactions and separations for energy economy across small- and large-scale processes. By facilitating knowledge exchange, the GRC on Chemical Separations contributes to the advancement and transformation of separation science.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

高效节能且可持续的化学分离工艺在燃料、化学品和医药产品的大规模生产中发挥着至关重要的作用。为了解决化学分离的复杂科学和技术挑战，必须将不同的研究团体和该领域的领导者聚集在一起讨论新兴概念和方法。戈登化学分离研究会议 (GRC) 定于 2024 年 1 月 21 日至 26 日在德克萨斯州加尔维斯顿举行，这将是进行与化学分离新兴概念和方法相关的跨学科科学讨论的绝佳机会。通过促进合作和知识交流，这些讨论可以促进高效和选择性分离技术的发展。这些进步有可能显着减少温室气体排放，降低与化学品和燃料制造相关的碳足迹，并降低理想产品的成本。该领域的研究人员和行业专业人士的集体努力可以为更加可持续和环境友好的未来做出贡献。化学、生物工程、环境和运输系统部门提供的支持将抵消研究生、博士后研究人员和早期职业科学家的出席费用，促进不同参与者群体的参与。 2024 年化学分离 GRC 直接解决了美国国家科学院报告“变革分离科学的研究议程”的建议，强调化学和化学工程分离研究界之间的实质性互动，并将相关概念整合到研究和教育中。 GRC 形式通过鼓励共享前沿的、未发表的数据、举办高参与度的海报会议以及营造一个合作、互动的环境来实现这一目标。来自学术界、国家实验室和工业界的研究人员将出席本次会议。该 GRC 在现有的以分离为重点的会议中脱颖而出，因为它将化学分离讨论扩展到分析技术之外，涵盖分离材料设计、工艺放大和操作注意事项。今年还重点关注在小型和大型工艺中整合化学反应和分离以实现能源经济的挑战和机遇。通过促进知识交流，GRC 化学分离为分离科学的进步和变革做出了贡献。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
