Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your recent studies or reviews in the field of “Catalysis: A Solution for Atmospheric Pollutants” for a Special Issue of Molecules.
With the development of society and modernized civilization, atmospheric pollutants have caused significant harm to the environment and human health. It is imperative to develop solutions for atmospheric pollutant removal, which has attracted significant attention.
This Special Issue includes advanced and efficient technologies for atmospheric pollutant control in the fields of adsorption/capture/catalysis (thermal, photo, photothermal, electrothermal, piezoelectric catalysis, etc.), preparation of high-performance functional nanomaterials, and the adsorption kinetics/capture/catalytic mechanisms of pollutant removal (NOx, VOCs, CO, NH3, etc.) from nanomaterials at the atomic and molecular level. In addition, some low-carbon technologies will also be considered.
We are looking forward to receiving your 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.
