Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to introduce the latest progress made in research on advanced electrocatalyst materials in the field of energy and the environment. With the rapid development of human society, energy shortages and environmental pollution have become two serious problems faced by human society. Therefore, there is an urgent need to solve these problems by developing advanced electrocatalyst materials for efficient energy conversion, energy storage and environmental protection. This Special Issue will mainly include manuscripts focused on the field of electrocatalysis. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: hydrogen evolution, carbon dioxide reduction, nitrogen reduction, oxygen reduction and microbial fuel cells. At the same time, we also intend to include research on the electrocatalytic treatment of refractory water pollutants and research on new energy recovery from environmental waste in this Special Issue. It is our pleasure to invite you to submit a manuscript to this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all welcome.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
