The International Symposium on Photocatalysis was held at Fuzhou University, China, on November 7th, 2015 with the participation of many famous invited speakers from Asia. As chair of this international symposium and president of Fuzhou University, I am honored to write the preface for this special issue of the international journal, Research on Chemical Intermediates (Springer) to commemorate this symposium. This meeting was organized to celebrate the designation in 2014 of the Research Institute of Photocatalysis of Fuzhou University as a ‘‘State Key Laboratory of Photocatalysis on Energy and Environment’’, the only State Key Laboratory devoted to photocatalysis in China.
