Chemical Kinetics for a Sustainable Future

The 13th International Conference on Chemical Kinetics will be held June 8-13, 2025 at Granlibakken Tahoe resort in Tahoe City, California.

Since its first organization in 1985 in Gaithersburg at the National Institute of Standards, the mission of the International Conference on Chemical Kinetics (ICCK) has been to bring together investigators from universities, research laboratories, and industrial organizations to review progress and problems in modeling, theory and experiment related to chemical kinetics. This cross-disciplinary meeting highlights the importance of fundamental understanding of elementary reactions to a full range of chemical investigations and the central role of chemical kinetics in addressing critical technological and environmental issues. The ICCK meetings provide a unique forum to discuss how the same reactive species and reaction motifs manifest under very different reaction conditions (e.g., atmospheric, aqueous, combustion, plasma, in nonaqueous solvents, and on surfaces). 

In recent years, ICCK was held in Hefei (2023), Orléans (2019), Chicago (2017), Ghent (2015), Seville (2013), and Boston (2011). The 13th ICCK in 2025 will concentrate on the multifaceted role of chemical kinetics as an enabling discipline. Chemical kinetics guides our description of chemical transformations in the Earth environment and beyond,  enables discovering, characterizing, and controlling reactions from biological systems to combustion to catalytic transformations, and helps develop affordable, reliable, and secure energy technologies.
