Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of catalysis has addressed and is poised to continue to address important issues in sustainability. As catalysts lower the energy requirements for a reaction or alter the selectivity for certain products, advances in catalysis very often lead to more sustainable chemical processes. This Special Issue calls for papers that will focus on recent advances where catalysts and reactor engineering have improved the sustainability of a chemical process. Areas of interest include carbon dioxide capture and conversion, automotive emissions control, biomass processing, new ammonia synthesis routes, chemical recycling of polymers, methane conversion, and photocatalytic processes. Contributions from areas not specifically listed here are also welcome. Both experimental and theoretical contributions are encouraged for submission.

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.
