Wastewater and Waste Treatment: Overview, Challenges and Current Trends (Volume II)

Dear Colleagues,

Climate change and resource scarcity are under development and represent the most important challenges of the 21^st century. Wastewater and waste treatment processes can play a major role in tackling both of these problems. Novel treatment processes of immerging pollutants are of high interest, especially when they lead to the recovery of energy or resources.

Apart from the technical characteristics, the environmental and economic impacts of any proposed wastewater and waste treatment process should be considered as they strongly affect their viability and adoption potential. Considering the latter, recent research efforts exhibiting innovative waste treatment methods should be framed by life cycle assessment or/and technoeconomic analysis of the proposed processes.

With the success of the previous Special Issue, “Wastewater and Waste Treatment: Overview, Challenges, and Current Trends (Volume I)”, Volume II of this Special Issue will continue to highlight current trends and future perspectives in wastewater and waste treatment methods, including economic and environmental assessments. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• novel biological, advanced oxidation, and physicochemical wastewater and waste treatment methods;
• current trends in wastewater and waste treatment systems;
• high-environmental-impact waste streams and treatment challenges;
• the environmental and economic impact of wastewater and waste treatment methods.

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 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.
