Nanostructured Materials for Photocatalysis
This special issue belongs to the section “Photocatalysis“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Photocatalysis has been identified as a suitable and sustainable approach to address two of the main issues facing humanity: Environmental protection and clean and sustainable energy production. Many efforts have been dedicated over the past few decades to the realization of efficient semiconductor photocatalysts and understanding the fundamentals governing efficiency. This is because of the advantages of the process operating under ambient conditions and the utilization of clean and endless solar energy. This Special Issue aims at presenting the current scientific developments in the area of photoactive heterojunction nanomaterials and their photocatalytic applications to environmental protection, clean energy production and chemical synthesis/processing. It is open to both original research articles and reviews.

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-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.
