- Abstract
- “Advances in sustainable catalysis: from materials to energy and environmental applications” is a comprehensive themed collection comprising more than 100 contributions published in both Journal of Materials Chemistry A and Materials Advances. This collection brings together recent advances in sustainable catalysis, which stand as a multidisciplinary approach that seeks to integrate environmental and economic dimensions to design catalytic processes viable in the long term. It focuses on the development of catalysts that enhance reaction efficiency and selectivity while minimizing environmental impact through environmentally friendly synthesis strategies, waste valorisation into high-value products, and the use of waste-derived materials. It also encompasses the optimization of catalytic processes to address key environmental challenges and reduce energy consumption through more efficient and synergistic use of energy. Several review articles are included in this collection, covering topics such as tribocatalysis, CO2 reduction, carbon-based materials, single-atom catalysis, high-entropy alloys, and engineered heterostructures systems.1–18 Given the breadth of the collection, and without intending to discuss each contribution in detail, the following sections highlight several overarching research themes addressed throughout the collection, citing some papers as representative examples.
