Environmental Restoration Materials and Technologies

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite all scientists, researchers and scholars in the field of environmentally functional nanomaterials, especially the participants of the China Materials Conference 2024 (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/nanomaterials/special_issues/XMW602XKMZ), to submit their original research papers and reviews to this Special Issue of Nanomaterials, entitled “Environmental Restoration Materials and Technologies”.

The exploration of environmental remediation technologies based on environmental functional nanomaterials is considered an effective strategy to alleviate environmental problems and the shortage of freshwater resources. The unique and tunable properties of nanomaterials endow them with diverse functions to deal with environmental and resource challenges, providing future opportunities for nanomaterials in the environment and ecosystem. Additionally, through theoretical research and practical applications, a scientific basis for critical material techniques could be provided for the evolution of related industries.

Therefore, we are pleased to invite you to submit manuscripts on the preparation, characterization and application, such as adsorption, capacitive deionization, membrane filtration, catalytic degradation, and advanced oxidation, of environmentally functional nanomaterials.

This Special Issue aims to publish original research in the fields of new synthetic methods for known environmentally functional materials, discovery or modification of new environmentally functional materials, new pollution control or desalination mechanisms, and practical and conceptual enhancements of known technologies.

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.
