Integrated Remediation Processes toward Heavy Metal and Organic Emerging Pollutant Removal

Dear Colleagues,

Both inorganic heavy metals and organic emerging pollutants are increasingly being considered as crucial threats to ecosystems and human health, which has resulted in growing efforts and resources dedicated to lines of research in this regard. With the increasing demand for environmental measures such as sustainable development goals and carbon neutrality, efficient and highly effective purification technologies for environmental remediation are indispensable.

To accomplish this, we need the best integration of physical, physicochemical, and chemical purification technologies. It is also important to develop innovative purification technologies based on new ideas.

The editors handling this topic would like to encourage all authors interested to submit their best manuscripts related to heavy metal and organic emerging pollutant removal. The aim is to improve the knowledge within this field, as well as open new views and perspectives where appropriate.

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.
