Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The increasing consumption of products and energy has significant implications for the environment. In order to address this challenge, it is crucial to develop novel materials, rethink existing ones, and explore the concept of a circular economy for metals, with a focus on producing hydrogen, fuels, and eliminating pollutants.
This Special Issue of Molecules aims to showcase the latest trends and future projections in the field while emphasizing the importance of rational material design to achieve sustainable development goals and mitigate negative environmental impacts. Specifically, this Special Issue will highlight the following key areas:
We invite researchers and experts from various disciplines to submit their original contributions and review papers to this Special Issue of Molecules. Together, we can foster innovation and drive progress towards a greener world.
We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions.

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.
