Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This issue is a continuation of the previous successful Special Issues “Catalysis on Stable Molecules (CO2, CO, CH4, N2, NH3) Activation and Their Transformation”, “Catalysis on Stable Molecules (CO2, CO, CH4, N2, NH3) Activation and Their Transformation, 2nd Edition” and “Catalysis on Stable Molecules (CO2, CO, CH4, N2, NH3) Activation and Their Transformation, 3rd Edition”.
C1 gases, including CO, CO2, and CH4, can be a starting material for the synthesis of value-added chemicals via several catalytic pathways. In addition to C1 gas, N2 and NH3 are also important building blocks for cc chemicals. In this Special Issue of Catalysts, recent research works on the activation and catalytic conversion of these stable molecules will be disclosed. The scope of this Special Issue of Catalysts encompasses all aspects of catalyst research on these stable molecules, from theoretical calculation to catalyst screening, for homogeneous and/or heterogeneous catalysts.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. Eun Duck Park
Guest Editor
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-anonymized 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.
