Special Issue Information
Every two years, the Catalysis Division of the Chemical Institute of Canada organizes a high-quality symposium, linking the catalysis community in Canada and many renowned researchers from both academia and industry around the world. The CSC 2022 is being held in Vancouver from 15–18 May with the theme: Catalyzing a Greener Future.
Although Catalysis is a general field, our endeavour is to find more environmentally friendly catalysts as well as to propose catalytic pathways to produce our goods in ways which minimize environmental impact for the benefit of our society. It would allow us to be more techno-economically efficient while preserving our future and thus would contribute to sustainability alongside tackling the anticipated phenomenal increase of our world’s need for energy and value-added processing.
In order to increase/optimize the positive impact of this symposium, the organizing committee and the open-access periodical Catalysts joined forces to produce a Special Issue, which will include the best quality contributions in the following areas:
- Catalysts/Nanocatalysts Synthesis, Characterization, Fundamentals & Mechanisms
- Industrial Applications of Catalysis
- Catalytic Reaction Engineering – Reactors Configurations and Scale-ups
- Catalysis for Bitumen/Heavy Oil Upgrading and Petroleum Refining
- Electrocatalysis for Energy Sustainability
- Photocatalysis
- Operando Catalysis and Advanced Characterization of Working Catalysts
- Biocatalysts for Fuels and Chemicals
- Catalysis for Bio-oils Production and Upgrading
- Advances in Selective Catalytic Reduction for NOx Emission Control
- Catalysis for Coal Conversion
- Catalytic Materials for Fuel Cells, Electrolysis, Supercapacitors and Batteries
- Catalytic Conversion of Sugars and Glycerol into Chemicals
- Catalysis for the Environment
The submission for the Special Issue of Catalysts will open till 15 September 2022. Please consider to submit a high quality manuscript for this Special Issue related to your presentation at the CSC 2022.

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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
