Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to announce a new Special Issue entitled “Feature Papers in Recycling 2023.” This is a collection of important high-quality papers (original research articles or comprehensive review papers) published in open access format by prominent scholars. Recycling is a peer-reviewed scientific journal in the area of waste reutilization and resource recycling. It provides an international online forum for studies related to recycling, resource recovery and waste utilisation across many industries, including glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics. We intend for this Special Issue to be an outstanding forum for disseminating excellent research findings, as well as sharing innovative ideas in the field.
In this Special Issue, we aim to collect contributions in the following main fields covered by the journal:
- Resource recycling;
- Waste processing technologies;
- Circular economy;
- Zero waste programs;
- Environmental and social impact of recycling;
- Product (eco) design and recycling.
