Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Currently, the world faces severe energy and environmental challenges. With the rapid development of green chemistry, heterogeneous catalysis has emerged as a pivotal driving force due to its efficiency and recyclability. This Special Issue focuses on new advances in photocatalysis, thermal catalysis, electrocatalysis, and related fields, covering applications in clean energy production, environmental pollutant degradation, and green synthesis processes. In this Special Issue, catalyst design, reaction mechanisms, and industrialization challenges will be discussed, aiming to facilitate sustainable chemical transformations. We cordially invite academic colleagues and industry peers to contribute and explore solutions for creating a low-carbon future.
Dr. Chen Li

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. 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.
