Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue presents studies that integrate porous materials with ionic liquids for application in sustainable catalytic processes. The works should highlight the maturation of an area that combines materials engineering, green chemistry, and catalysis with the aim of establishing cleaner and more energy-efficient chemical routes. This Special Issue is intended to serve as a reference for researchers and professionals working in the development of technologies aligned with the principles of sustainability and the circular economy. Combining ionic liquids and porous materials, heterogeneous catalysis, and sustainable chemical processes, this Special Issue offers a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art and emerging opportunities in the field.

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.
