Advances in Engineered Nanostructures for Detection, Control and Removal of Environmental Pollutants

This special issue belongs to the section “Environmental Nanoscience and Nanotechnology“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Increasing environmental pollution worldwide has led to a tremendous boost in the advancement of environmental nanotechnology by exploring advanced engineered nanostructures to improve the removal of various pollutants. In this context, this Special Issue welcomes original articles and reviews describing the latest progress in fabricating novel nanostructured materials with enhanced capabilities to control, detect, and remove pollutants from the environment.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

- Nanostructures with functionalities to control and detect environmental pollutants;

- Engineering novel functionalities of nanomaterials for environmental clean-up;

- Nanostructures for catalytic/photocatalytic elimination of pollutants from water, air, or soil;

- Porous nanoarchitectures for adsorption of chemical pollutants;

- Studies on photo/catalytic reactions and sorption mechanisms applied to environmental nanotechnology.

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. Nanomaterials 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 2400 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.
