Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The increasing demand for clean water has motivated innovations in water treatment technologies for the remediation of recalcitrant organic contaminants. Heterogeneous catalytic processes, especially advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) involving the generation of various reactive oxygen species (ROS), have recently delivered enormous capability and great potential in the catalytic oxidation of emerging organic pollutants for water purification.

This Special Issue aims to consider manuscripts dealing with heterogeneous catalytic processes for water remediation, including basic scientific research and potential practical application studies. The heterogeneous catalytic processes will cover but not be limited to conventional AOPs such as Fenton and Fenton-like reactions, persulfate activation, ozonation, photocatalysis, and photo/electrochemical oxidation methods, and novel molecular oxygen activation and self-purification processes with low energy and resource consumptions will be also included. Studies on the synthesis and application of advanced heterogeneous materials for water and wastewater treatment are particularly encouraged and 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.
