Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from both anthropogenic and natural sources pose significant health risks and environmental impact, while CO2 plays an important role in driving global warming. The effective control and purification of VOCs and CO2 are essential for creating healthier indoor environments, mitigating outdoor air pollution, and addressing climate change.
This Special Issue focuses on the latest advances, technologies, and strategies in air purification to manage VOCs and CO2. Topics include, but are not limited to, innovative adsorption materials, catalytic oxidation methods, photocatalysis, biofiltration, and advanced membrane technologies.
We invite contributions from researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to share original research and review articles. This platform aims to foster collaboration and innovation to address the challenges of VOC and CO2 management in diverse environments.
Dr. Hui Ding
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 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.
