Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical sensors have become essential for detecting and analyzing environmental pollutants in real time. They are highly sensitive and selective and provide fast measurements, making them crucial for managing and assessing environmental quality. Electrochemical sensors are utilized in various applications, such as monitoring air and water quality, detecting greenhouse gases, monitoring soil quality, and identifying emerging contaminants. Their portability and integration capabilities facilitate remote and mobile monitoring, enabling data collection in challenging environments. This Special Issue aims to emphasize the significance of electrochemical sensors in environmental applications and present the latest advancements in this field.
This Special Issue welcomes contributions (papers, communications, and reviews) that address the following broad topics (but not limited to):
- Development and optimization of electrochemical sensor platforms for environmental monitoring.
- Design and fabrication of novel sensing materials and electrode architectures.
- Integrating electrochemical sensors with emerging technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), data analytics, and Artificial Intelligence, for intelligent environmental monitoring systems.
- Electrochemical sensors for analyzing and monitoring water quality, including detecting heavy metals, organic contaminants, and nutrients.
- Applications of electrochemical sensors for the real-time monitoring of greenhouse gases
- Electrochemical sensor-based approaches for detecting and quantifying emerging contaminants, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, and microplastics.

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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
