Waste Supermaterials: Engineered Multifunctional Composites for Dual Water-Waste Solutions

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue, Waste Supermaterials: Engineered Multifunctional Composites for Dual Water-Waste Solutions, will spotlight the latest advancements in the development of multifunctional composite materials derived from waste resources. It will focus on innovative strategies that transform waste into high-performance materials capable of addressing two of the most pressing global challenges: water purification and waste management.

We welcome original research and review articles that explore the design, synthesis, and application of waste-derived supermaterials with dual-functionality. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, advanced adsorbents, photocatalysts, and membrane materials from industrial, agricultural, or municipal waste; smart composites for wastewater treatment; and circular economy approaches that link waste valorization with water treatment technologies.

By bringing together multidisciplinary research from materials science, environmental engineering, and sustainable chemistry, this Special Issue will provide a comprehensive platform for novel solutions that contribute to cleaner water and a cleaner planet.

We look forward to your valuable contributions, which will help us to shape the future of sustainable materials and integrated environmental solutions.

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. 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.
