Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have emerged as a promising technology in the field of green manufacturing. MNPs are small particles with magnetic properties that can be easily controlled and manipulated using magnetic fields. This innovation has the potential to revolutionize the way products are manufactured, making the process more sustainable and environmentally friendly. One of the major benefits of MNPs is that they can be used as catalysts in chemical reactions, allowing for the production of products with fewer waste products and lower energy consumption.
The aim of this Special Issue of Processes is to present the state-of-the-art applications of nanoparticles for green manufacturing, including both experimental and numerical studies. Advanced research for the recovery and reusability of MNPs in order to save resources and reduce the amount of waste produced in the manufacturing process is also welcome. In addition, innovative methods for the production of biofuels as well as cleaning and purifying contaminated water and soil procedures by using MNPs are also welcome. Contributions that study the production of biofuels, waste reduction, resource conservation, and pollution control using MNPs are also very much appreciated.

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.
