Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is currently accepted that domestic and industrial wastewater discharge is one the main sources of micropollutants in surface waters, and conventional treatment processes present variable removal efficiencies for these substances. Advanced treatment using membrane processes may be one of the best options to improve wastewater quality before its release to the aquatic environment. This Special Issue is focused on membrane processes for wastewater treatment, with a focus on micropollutant removal. Aspects that could be considered include the choice of membrane configurations and materials, operating conditions and challenges (e.g., fouling control), treatment efficiencies, the applicability to different types of wastewaters (e.g., micropollutant class versus removal potential), combined treatment processes made viable through membrane use, the potential for the (non-potable) reuse of treated wastewaters, and the economic analysis of membrane processes.

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. Membranes 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 2700 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.
