Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
As the global energy crisis and environmental pollution worsen, especially in developing countries with rapid economic growth, more advanced technologies are required to achieve energy savings and material reuse and eliminate environmental pollution. Among the various technologies, membrane separation, especially IEM-based electrodialysis (ED), relies on the selective retention or transfer of ions through thin membranes to achieve effective separation and purification in solution systems. It is well established that IEM-based ED technology plays a vital role in water treatment and reuse, material desalination, clean production and energy conversion and storage. This Special Issue welcomes articles, case studies, reviews and communications that highlight recent advances in the broad field of membrane fouling.

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.
