The 118 equal divisions of the octave (118edo), or the 118(-tone) equal temperament (118tet, 118et) when viewed from a regular temperament perspective, is the equal division of the octave into 118 parts of about 10.2 cents each.
Theory
118edo represents the intersection of the 5-limit schismatic and parakleismic temperaments, tempering out both the schisma, [-15 8 1⟩ and the parakleisma, [8 14 -13⟩, as well as the vishnuzma, [23 6 -14⟩, the hemithirds comma, [38 -2 -15⟩, and the kwazy, [-53 10 16⟩. It is the first 5-limit equal division which clearly gives microtempering, with errors well under half a cent. In addition, 118edo excellently approximates the 22 Shruti scale.
In the 7-limit, it is particularly notable for tempering out the gamelisma, 1029/1024, and is an excellent tuning for the rank three gamelan temperament, and for guiron, the rank two temperament also tempering out the schisma, 32805/32768. It also tempers out 3136/3125, the hemimean comma, but 99edo does better with that.
In the 11-limit, it tempers out 385/384 and 441/440, and is an excellent tuning for portent, the temperament tempering out both, and for the 11-limit version of guiron, which does also.
It has two reasonable mappings for 13. The patent val tempers out 196/195, 352/351, 625/624, 729/728, 1001/1000, 1575/1573 and 4096/4095. The 118f val tempers out 169/168, 325/324, 351/350, 364/363, 1573/1568, 1716/1715 and 2080/2079. It is, however, better viewed as a no-13 19-limit temperament, on which subgroup it is consistent through the 21-odd-limit.
Since the Pythagorean comma maps to 2 steps of 118edo, it can be interpreted as a series of ten segments of twelve Pythagorean fifths minus the said comma.
118edo is the 17th zeta peak edo.

Notation
Possible chemical notation
This notation was proposed by Eliora in November 2021.
118 is the number of chemical elements in the first 7 periods of the periodic table, and it is the number of elements which are ever expected to be most useful to humans. As a result, chemical element names can be used as note names in 118edo. In addition, such a notation is succinct as each pitch class is unique, and also it doesn't favor any other temperament or tuning besides 118edo.
However, chemical notation's properties can also be a disadvantage - it requires memorizing the names of the elements of the periodic table. In addition, uniqueness of pitch class is a disadvantage as well - since all the notes are separately named, it does not reflect the harmonic structure of 118edo.

- 118et is lower in relative error than any previous ETs in the 5-limit. Not until 171 do we find a better ET in terms of absolute error, and not until 441 do we find one in terms of relative error.
