The International Symposium on Nonthermal/Thermal Plasma Pollution Control Technology & Sustainable Energy (ISNTP) has been leading the researches and applications of plasma technologies for the environmental cleaning and sustainable energy since 1992. The "International Society of ISNTP" is a group of researchers from throughout the world interested in plasma processes for environmental and energy applications. This society promotes the exchange of ideas and new developments on the relevant topics. Through the society conferences, with the first in 1992 in Cambridge England and continued through Seoul Korea in 2025, we have gathered to discuss how nonthermal and thermal plasma processes can be used and developed for cleaning the environment and ameliorating global climate change. Gas cleaning and water treatment were the important topics in the early ISNTP meetings. Now, energy-related issues, such gas gas reforming, formation of valuable chemicals such as hydrogen, ammonia, nitrogen fertilizer, often referred to as power-to-X, have become hot topics. The "International Journal of Plasma Environmental Science and Technology (IJPEST; http://ijpest.com)", published by the Institute of Electrostatics Japan is an important outcome from our society, and many special issues have been published in IJPEST. The International Society of ISNTP will continue to support researchers involved in the following topics.
