Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As we face pressing global challenges such as climate change and energy sustainability, research in combustion technology plays a critical role in developing efficient energy systems and reducing harmful emissions. Innovations in this field can lead to significant advancements in industrial applications, transportation, and power generation, ultimately contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable future. The Special Issue aims to gather innovative and high-quality research that addresses various aspects of combustion technology, including, but not limited to, the following:
- Advanced combustion processes and technologies;
- Emission reduction strategies;
- Combustion modeling and simulations;
- Alternative fuels and their applications;
- Experimental techniques in combustion research.
We welcome original research articles, reviews, and case studies that contribute to the advancement of knowledge in these areas. All submissions will undergo a rigorous peer-review process to ensure the highest quality.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
