Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Water is required for life and sustainable development; however, the pollution generated by industrial, agricultural, and urban activities poses an increasing challenge to water resources. Mitigating these impacts is crucial to ensuring the quality of water and preserving the health of aquatic ecosystems.
This Special Issue aims to compile innovative research on the strategies, technologies, and approaches employed to reduce, treat, and prevent water pollution. We welcome the submission of experimental studies, models, and reviews whose scope includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Advanced wastewater treatment;
- Nature-based solutions;
- Membrane processes;
- Environmental remediation techniques;
- Impact of emerging contaminants on water quality;
- Management models and policies for water resource protection;
- Biotechnology applications in pollutant removal;
- Monitoring and evaluation strategies for pollution control;
- Novel nanomaterials for water purification and regeneration.
This Special Issue seeks to contribute to the development of sustainable solutions that ameliorate water pollution and enhance the availability of high-quality water for future generations. Researchers and professionals are invited to submit original studies and critical reviews on this topic.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Sincerely,
Dr. Hugo Valdés
Dr. Aldo Saavedra
