The International Symposium on Wood, Fiber, and Pulp Chemistry (ISWFPC) has a long history. It has been held every other year since 1981 (Stockholm), and this year marks the 21st time. The 2021 was postponed due to the pandemic, so it past four years since 2019 (Tokyo). It was held in Venice from July 4th to 7th, and is headed by Prof. Claudia Crestine, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. Approximately 200 researchers and students (235 peoples including local staffs) from all over the world, mainly from Europe, participated in 84 oral presentations divided into 3 rooms and in 86 poster presentations into the fields of wood biorefinery, cellulose and lignin (35, 20 and 31, respectively) over 3 days. At the beginning of the first and second days, Dr. John Ralph (USDA, USA) and Prof. Thomas Rosenau (BOKU University, Austria) gave plenary lectures on lignin and cellulose, respectively. The next 22nd symposium in 2025 will be held in Raleigh, headed by Prof. Hasan Jameel of North Carolina State University, USA. This time, it has been decided that Pekanbaru, Indonesia will be the venue for 2027.
