Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Catalytic oxidation processes have been considered as promising for water and wastewater treatment. During the catalytic oxidation processes, highly reactive radicals such as hydroxyl, sulfate, chlorine, and nitrogen radicals are generated to oxidize a broad range of refractory organics (emerging contaminants and certain inorganic pollutants, etc) or to increase biodegradability as a pre-treatment prior to an ensuing biological treatment. However, how to produce and utilize reactive radicals effectively and stably are very crucial to catalytic oxidation processes. The practical application of catalytic oxidation processes is challenged by the reaction rates, harmful byproducts, scaling-up, etc. This Special Issue will focus on the kinetic studying, mechanistic understanding, and large-scale applications of catalytic oxidation processes for water and wastewater treatment, including ozone-, UV-, H2O2-, Cl2-, persulfate-, membrane-based catalytic oxidation; electrocatalytic catalytic oxidation; and photocatalytic catalytic oxidation processes. Research articles, reviews, and short communications on relevant topics are welcomed.

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. 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.
