Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue, ‘Nanoparticles for Environmental Applications’. The rapid development of nanotechnology has opened up new frontiers in addressing environmental challenges. Engineered nanoparticles offer promising capabilities in pollution control, water purification, the remediation of contaminated sites, and potential applications in electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding systems.
This Special Issue will showcase high-quality original research articles and reviews that highlight recent advances in the synthesis, characterization, and application of nanoparticles in solving environmental issues. An emphasis will be placed on interdisciplinary approaches that link material science, environmental engineering, chemistry, and toxicology.
For this Special Issue, we welcome original research articles and reviews. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- The synthesis of nanoparticles for environmental remediation;
- Nanoparticles in wastewater and air treatment;
- Ecotoxicological assessments of nanoparticles;
- Nanoparticles for EMI shielding applications;
- Nano-enabled sensors for environmental monitoring;
- Green synthesis and lifecycle analysis in nanomaterials.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Marija B. Radoičić
Guest Editor
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. Molecules 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 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.
