Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Photocatalytic technology offers an innovative approach to addressing the energy and environmental challenges faced by human society. Research on photocatalytic hydrogen evolution, nitrogen reduction, carbon dioxide reduction, and high-value chemical conversion is advancing rapidly. In-depth investigations into the development of devices and mechanisms for these photocatalytic reactions are crucial for promoting the advancement and practical application of photocatalytic technology.
This Special Issue on “Mechanisms, Devices and Applications of Photocatalytic Processes” seeks high-quality works focusing on the new materials, mechanisms, and devices for photocatalytic reactions. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Development of new materials for photocatalytic reactions;
- Design and development of photocatalytic reaction devices;
- Exploration of new mechanisms in photocatalytic reactions.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
