Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, titled "Efficient Catalytic Degradation of Organic Pollutants by Nanocomposites". It aims to explore cutting-edge advancements in the synthesis, characterization, and application of nanocomposites for addressing environmental challenges related to organic pollutants.

With the growing concerns about pollution and the need for sustainable solutions, nanocomposites have emerged as powerful tools for catalyzing the degradation of hazardous organic compounds. This Special Issue seeks to highlight innovative research on the design of novel nanocomposites, their catalytic mechanisms, and their efficiency in removing organic pollutants from various environmental matrices.

We welcome submissions in the following areas:

  • Development of novel nanocomposites with enhanced catalytic properties.
  • Mechanistic insights into the catalytic degradation of organic pollutants.
  • Applications of nanocomposites in wastewater treatment and air purification.
  • Green synthesis approaches for nanocomposites.
  • Performance evaluation of nanocomposites under real-world conditions.
  • Comparison of catalytic efficiencies across different nanocomposite systems.

Contributors are encouraged to submit original research articles, reviews, and case studies that provide valuable insights into the potential of nanocomposites for environmental remediation.

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. 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.
