Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The quality of drinking water has shown to be a primary cause of serious problems including transmission of pathogen agents responsible of varied infectious diseases. Hence, the methods of water treatment for human consumption pay special attention on the safe microbiological disinfection, as well as priority and emerging contaminants. Along the past few years the laws have seriously strengthened the parameters of water quality in many countries around the world. However, the disinfection processes employed in most conventional drinking water facilities such as chlorination, usually do not achieve full inactivation of all types of pathogens, whereas even in the presence of very low concentrations of organic matter, it leads to harmful disinfection by-products to form. Therefore, the development and implementation of clean, biologically safe, environmental-friendly and cost-effective technologies in the treatment of pathogen agents and new contaminants are mandatory.

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. Eng is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1200 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.
