Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The control of sediment endogenous pollution and the achievement of its resource utilization are crucial for addressing the increasingly severe challenges of water eutrophication, degradation of ecosystem functions, and stringent sediment environmental management standards. In recent years, significant progress has been made in innovative engineering solutions, demonstrating great potential in improving the removal efficiency of endogenous pollutants, reducing energy and chemical consumption, and enabling sediment resource recovery. This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest advancements in cutting-edge sediment remediation methods, including in-situ remediation technologies, physicochemical-biological coupled systems, redox regulation and control technologies, pollutant release flux monitoring, and digital tools for process optimization. We welcome submissions of original research papers and review articles focusing on innovations at the laboratory scale and their full-scale practical applications. Additionally, we particularly encourage contributions related to the regulation and control of sediment-water interface processes, synergistic recovery of nitrogen and phosphorus nutrients, biomass energy conversion, functional material preparation, and intelligent sediment management systems.
By integrating multidisciplinary perspectives from environmental engineering, ecology, and materials science, this Special Issue aims to provide valuable insights into current frontier technologies and future directions in sediment endogenous pollution control and resource utilization. We hope that the research findings presented herein will contribute to the development of more resilient, efficient, and environmentally friendly solutions, thereby supporting the sustainable management of global aquatic ecosystems and ensuring water quality security.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Water 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.
