Catalysts for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Related Reactions

Dear Colleagues,

This is a Special Issue on “Catalysts for Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) and Related Reactions”, including selective catalytic reduction of NO_x, passive NO_x adsorption (PNA), NO oxidation, and selective catalytic oxidation of ammonia (NH₃-SCO), the catalytic elimination of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and the related reactions. This call includes both experimental results and computational calculations. We are interested in but not limited to the study of SCR activity and stability of catalysts via optimizing zeolites and mixed oxide-based catalysts. Particular focus is on the discovery of novel PNA and AdSCR catalysts to address issues related to NO_x emission from diesel engines during the cold-start period. From a theoretical point of view, we highly encourage submissions that involve quantum theory in atoms and molecules to illustrate the microstructure of active sites over catalysts for SCR and related reactions.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2200 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.
