Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Catalytic conversion of CO2 emissions from fossil fuel utilization into value-added chemical feedstocks, such as methanol, formic acid, methyl esters, and carbon monoxide, represents an effective strategy for mitigating global greenhouse effects. The catalyst materials serve as the cornerstone of these transformation processes. For this reason, this Special Issue focuses on the research regarding catalysts used for CO2 conversion. This research encompasses the following: rational design, synthesis, and comprehensive physicochemical characterization of catalysts; catalytic performance evaluation under optimized reaction conditions; catalytic mechanistic insights through catalytic reaction kinetic analysis; and reviews of the last advancements in CO2 conversion catalysis.
We look forward to your contributions.

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.
