Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Carbon capture, storage, and utilization (CCSU) have recently drawn attention within the research community and funding bodies. Researchers have come up with new research lines in this direction, with innovative and advanced sorbents and also with new process routes.
New sorbents have been characterized, and their performance has also been checked, with some examples of cutting-edge sorbents including MOF-based, amine-based, CaO looping, and metal-based ones. Additionally, numerous new catalysts for CO2 thermal, electro-, and photoconversion have been developed. All these new materials can have higher performance and have an environmental impact on CCSU lifecycle assessment.
When it comes to new process routes and process integration of CCSU within different plants and industries, it is important to highlight the impact of these strategies. Optimization of operational existing conditions in pilot plants and new issues tackled in process integration has been considered for carbon capture, storage, and/or utilization. These advancements can deliver lower energy consumption and have an immediate impact on plant efficiency.
This Special Issue on “Trends in Carbon Capture, Storage, and Utilization” seeks high-quality works focusing on the latest novel advances in carbon capture, storage, and utilization. Topics include but are not limited to:
- Innovative sorbents and performance application for CCSU;
- Experimental works and simulation of CCSU processes;
- Novel CCSU studies for process integration;
- CCSU industrial integration, application, and modeling.

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. Chemistry is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 1800 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.
