Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Water purification and wastewater remediation are critical challenges today, with demands for sustainable and efficient solutions continually increasing. This Special Issue, “Next-Generation Catalytic Solutions for Water Purification and Wastewater Remediation,” aims to explore the latest advancements in catalytic technologies that address these challenges.

We invite researchers to submit high-quality original research articles and comprehensive review papers that focus on innovative catalytic materials, processes, and applications in water treatment. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Development of novel catalytic materials for water purification;
  • Advanced catalytic processes for wastewater treatment;
  • Catalytic degradation of emerging contaminants;
  • Sustainability and environmental impact of catalytic water treatment methods;
  • Integration of catalytic systems with other water treatment technologies;
  • Case studies and practical applications of catalytic solutions in real-world scenarios.

The Special Issue provides a platform for scientists, engineers, and professionals in the field to share their findings and insights. It serves as a valuable resource for those aiming to understand cutting-edge developments in catalytic approaches to water purification and wastewater 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.
