Heterogeneous Catalyst for Energy Conversion and Environmental Applications

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the recent advances and significance of nanomaterials (e.g., 0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D dimensional nanomaterials), related to the rational design, modification strategy, and study of unique properties of heterogeneous catalysts for efficient catalytic, photocatalytic, and photo-electrochemical applications for energy conversion and environmental remediation.   

Heterogeneous catalysts in the form of nanomaterials and various dimensionalities (0D, 1D, 2D, and 3D) are important species in most applications because they serve as the bridging agents on heterojunctions or interfaces, or act as co-catalysts for unique charge interaction, improvement in electronic properties and surface chemistry for an efficient chemical reaction to take places. In addition, engineering heterogeneous catalysts in different dimensionalities enhances mass transfer, promoting efficient catalytic performance.   

We kindly invite you to submit a manuscript for this Special Issue on “Heterogeneous Catalyst for Energy Conversion and Environmental Applications”. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all welcome.

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. Materials 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 2600 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.
