Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Membrane systems are critical technologies. They are used for water purification, in microfluidic devices (in laboratories on chips), for the creation of new biomaterials, in the development of fuel cells, etc.
Membrane methods, including electrodialysis (ED), are the dominant processes in providing fresh water to millions of people, and they have already proven their environmental and economic feasibility. Electrodialysis desalination provides high water recovery without the use of chemicals. In addition, the ability of ED to extract ionic and non-ionic components is used for the treatment of municipal and industrial wastewater, brackish water, in the chemical and food industries,and electric power.
A large number of researchers develop and improve mathematical models of various electrochemical phenomena in membrane processes as a powerful tool for understanding the processes of ED systems, for studying and optimizing their performance. Authors are invited to submit their latest results; both original articles and reviews are 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 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 2200 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.
