Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The persistent release of hazardous pollutants into ecosystems demands innovative remediation strategies. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) leveraging nanomaterials have emerged as a transformative approach, offering high efficiency, scalability, and specificity in degrading refractory contaminants. This Special Issue highlights cutting-edge research on nanomaterial-enhanced AOPs, focusing on novel synthesis, mechanistic insights, and applications in water, air, and soil remediation. We invite original research, reviews, and communications addressing the following:
- Design and optimization of nanomaterials for AOPs;
- Mechanistic studies of reactive species generation and pollutant degradation;
- Scalability and environmental toxicology of nanomaterials;
- Hybrid systems integrating AOPs with other technologies.
Contributions should advance our fundamental understanding or the practical deployment of these systems, bridging gaps between laboratory innovation and real-world environmental solutions. Submissions must adhere to the rigorous scientific standards of Toxics. For inquiries, contact the Editorial Office.

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. Toxics 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 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.
