Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The hazards of fossil energy combustion have become a global concern. Cleaner combustion and the utilization of new energy sources attract much attentions in order to meet the challenge of exacerbating environmental problems, such as global warming and air pollution, as a result of the greenhouse gases and other pollutants produced by its emissions.
The advantages of cleaner combustion and new energy sources lie in their diversity, environmental friendliness and sustainability. Clean combustion minimizes the emission of harmful gases and particulate matter through efficient combustion technologies and purification facilities, reducing the negative impact on the atmosphere. New energy covers renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and geothermal energy, the use of which reduces dependence on finite fossil energy sources and reduces the emission of pollutants while at the same time realizing the sustainability of energy supply.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of relevant directions in cleaner combustion and new energy utilization and conversion. Through in-depth study of chemical reaction mechanisms in the combustion process, optimization of fuel and oxidant combinations, and development of efficient energy conversion technologies, the cleaner, more efficient and sustainable use of energy can be further achieved. This Special Issue will cover the following topics related to clean combustion and new energy utilization and conversion:
- Greenhouse gas emission reduction technologies;
- Research and application of clean combustion technologies;
- Development and utilization of new energy sources;
- Materials and catalysts for energy conversion;
- Construction of sustainable energy supply chains;
- Hydrogen production and utilization;
- Application of renewable energy in industrial processes.
I look forward to receiving your submissions.

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. Fire 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 2400 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.
