Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Air pollution continues to pose significant challenges to environmental sustainability and public health worldwide. While regulatory efforts and conventional control technologies have achieved notable progress, there remains an urgent need for innovative, efficient, and scalable solutions to reduce emissions at the source across key sectors such as industry, transportation, agriculture, and urban development. This Special Issue aims to highlight cutting-edge research and forward-thinking management practices that address the mitigation of air pollutants through technological innovation and strategic oversight.

We welcome the submission of high-quality original research articles, reviews, and case studies that contribute to the advancement of emission control and abatement strategies. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

  • The development and application of novel processes and materials for the removal of air pollutants, including advanced oxidation, advanced functional materials, biotechnologies, and hybrid/coupled treatment systems, etc.
  • The design and implementation of source-specific abatement techniques for major sectors including industry, agriculture, transportation, and urban development, etc.
  • Data-driven strategies that employ AI and process optimization to enable real-time monitoring, predictive control, and intelligent decision-making for emission management.
  • Analysis of regulatory frameworks, economic incentives, and governance models that promote the development and broad adoption of advanced mitigation technologies.
