Something Old, Something New, Nothing Borrowed, Something Blue

Dear readers, authors, and reviewers,

It's a new year and an (almost) new team for ChemBioEng Reviews.

After more than 30 years at Wiley Dr. Barbara Boeck has retired. As founder and Editor-in-Chief she was responsible for the development of ChemBioEng Reviews since its launch in 2014. From the time when we were a young journal, when she offered authors transfers from our sister journal Chemical Engineering & Technology to us. Until when we finally received an Impact Factor and the author- and readership of ChemBioEng Reviews continued to grow. During that time, she had the best for the journal and our authors and reviewers in mind and supporting the community by giving many talks and presentations to give an understanding of “How to write a hit paper”. We wish her the best for her retirement.

But let's start with the new and old and let me introduce to you our new Editor-in-Chief, Dr. Sabine Wiederhold. You may know her name from our sister journals Chemical Engineering & Technology and Chemie Ingenieur Technik, where she takes care of Chemical Engineering related manuscripts since 2010, handling articles from submission to publication. She worked close with Dr. Boeck and knows the Chemical Engineering community well. She is looking forward to work with you and help ChemBioEng Reviews to grow and thrive. So is our new Deputy Editor, Dr. Rosemary Puls. She started at Wiley in 2021 at ChemCatChem and ChemistrySelect and will now be part of the Chemical Engineering family. As you can see, one familiar face remains. Dr. Arno Knappschneider is still part of the editorial team of ChemBioEng Reviews and will continue to handle manuscripts and take care of other tasks, like writing this editorial. Please welcome Dr. Wiederhold and Dr. Puls with me in the team of ChemBioEng Reviews.

Ahead lies a year full of changes for us as you can see in the above paragraph and lots of challenges for the world. While these internal changes might alter your person of contact or may result in some layout changes, we will keep up our work publishing your manuscripts in the known quality and with the topics that need to be addressed to face the global challenges. But be sure our signature color will always be blue.

In this first issue of 2024, you will find topics like biobased foams in construction applications but also a review about Li-Air batteries and there is more to come. As in the last ten years we will bring you the newest and best topics around.

Welcome to 2024 stay safe and healthy!

Yours sincerely

Arno Knappschneider (Associate Editor)

Rosemary Puls (Deputy Editor)

Sabine Wiederhold (Editor-in-Chief)

旧的东西，新的东西，没有借来的东西，蓝色的东西

亲爱的读者、作者和评论家，

这是新的一年，也是ChemBioEng Reviews的（几乎）新团队。

在 Wiley 工作 30 多年后，Barbara Boeck 博士退休了。作为创始人兼主编，自ChemBioEng Reviews自 2014 年创刊以来，她一直负责其开发。从我们还是一个年轻期刊的时候起，她就将作者从我们的姊妹期刊《化学工程与技术》转移到了我们。直到我们最终收到影响因子，《ChemBioEng Reviews》的作者和读者群持续增长。在那段时间里，她为期刊、我们的作者和审稿人着想，并通过多次演讲和演讲来支持社区，让人们了解“如何撰写热门论文”。我们祝愿她退休后一切顺利。

但让我们从新的和旧的开始，让我向您介绍我们的新任主编 Sabine Wiederhold 博士。您可能从我们的姊妹期刊《化学工程与技术》和《化学工程师技术》中知道她的名字，她自 2010 年起负责化学工程相关的手稿，处理文章从投稿到发表的整个过程。她与 Boeck 博士密切合作，并且非常了解化学工程界。她期待与您合作，帮助ChemBioEng Reviews成长和繁荣。我们的新任副编辑罗斯玛丽·普尔斯博士也是如此。她于 2021 年在 Wiley 的ChemCatChem和ChemistrySelect开始工作，现在将成为化学工程家族的一员。正如你所看到的，一张熟悉的面孔仍然存在。 Arno Knappschneider 博士仍然是ChemBioEng Reviews编辑团队的一员，并将继续处理手稿并负责其他任务，例如撰写这篇社论。欢迎 Wiederhold 博士和 Puls 博士与我一起加入ChemBioEng Reviews团队。

正如您在上一段中看到的那样，未来的一年对我们来说充满了变化，世界也面临着许多挑战。虽然这些内部变化可能会改变您的联系人或可能导致一些布局变化，但我们将继续努力以已知的质量和需要解决的主题来出版您的手稿以应对全球挑战。但请确保我们的标志色始终是蓝色。

在 2024 年第一期中，您将找到建筑应用中的生物基泡沫等主题，还有有关锂空气电池的评论，还有更多内容即将推出。与过去十年一样，我们将为您带来最新、最好的主题。

欢迎来到 2024 年，保持安全和健康！

此致
