Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Emissions from biomass burning have been recognised as a significant contributor to air pollution and climate change. Recently, there have been a number of works showing the characteristics of emissions from biomass burning and their contributions to air quality, health effects and climate change. The findings include emissions of inorganic and organic chemicals from biomass burning, physical properties of particles emitted from biomass burning, personal exposure to emissions from biomass burning, and greenhouse gas emissions from biomass burning and its impacts on climate change, among others. Relevant issues include NH3, NOx, N2O, CO2, PM, and PAH emissions from biomass burning; the size distribution of bioaerosols from biomass burning; VOC emissions from biomass burning and its impacts on O3; and the light absorption of organic carbon emitted from biomass burning; among others. A number of studies have also emphasized biomass burning emission inventory and aerosol particle source apportionment, which make a distinguished contribution to haze pollution research and control.
This Special Issue on “Studies on Characteristics, Influences, and Control Strategies of Biomass Burning Emissions” seeks high-quality works focusing on the latest scientific research and control technologies for characteristics of biomass emissions and pollution control. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Chemical properties of biomass burning emissions;
- Health effects of chemicals emitted from biomass burning;
- Impacts of biomass emissions on climate change;
- Emission inventories of chemicals emitted from biomass burning.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
