The Harvey M. Rosen Memorial Award was established in 1989 to recognize the “best paper” published in Ozone: Science & Engineering during the two-years period between World Congresses. Dr. Harvey M. Rosen was a prime mover behind the establishment of the International Ozone Association and of OS&E, the Journal of the Association. It was Harvey Rosen who recognized early in the 1970s the need for the establishment of an ozone association, and then pressed for the creation (in 1979) of a peer-reviewed technical journal dealing with all aspects of ozone technologies. Recipients of the Rosen Award are determined by consensus polling of the members of the Editorial Board of OS&E every two years.

Past Recipients of Rosen Award are:
