Two years after assuming a new name and format change, the year 2010 marks the 8th anniversary of Particuology. To commemorate this special occasion for the journal, the thematic editors met in Montreal at the 8th World Congress of Chemical Engineering and decided to compile a truly special issue. Instead of producing another ＂conventional＂ special issue of the more ＂regular＂ research papers on some given subjects, we have decided to take a more innovative format for this issue to present short discussion papers that provide quick overviews of the current status of selected subiects and then discuss forward thinking for the future.
