Recent Papers - Machine Learning Special Issue
Reviews/Accounts - last 5 years
The concept of sustainable development was placed in focus about 35 years ago and described as the "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs". Hence, sustainability is a paradigm for thinking about the future, in which improvements in quality of life are pursued through an equilibrated mix of environmental, economic and societal considerations.
Inspired by UNESCO's initiative to highlight the connection between Basic Sciences and the Sustainable Development Goals, the Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society is proud of publishing a special edition centered on the subject "2022-International Year of Basic Sciences for the Sustainable Development". This special edition contains review papers and original contributions related to "Greener synthesis and analysis" and "Environmental chemistry and biorefining", two main aspects of Chemistry within the scope of the JBCS.
The contributions have been submitted by different research groups. Considering that the initiative of producing this special issue met with high success and was enthusiastically welcomed by the chemical community, and that this has resulted in an important number of received submissions, the originally proposed aim to release a single volume has been modified and articles have now been thematically grouped in two special issues (33-7 and 33-8). Therefore, the Editorial Board of the JBCS wishes to thank all authors for considering our invitation and joining us in this endeavor.

Biosurfactants are molecules of animal, vegetable and microbial origin with various industrial applications. Animal and plant biosurfactants are obtained by extractive methods. Microbial biosurfactants are extracelular metabolites and can be obtained by fermentation processes in the biorefineries contexts.
