Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are guest-editing a Special Issue of Water, titled “Bioenergy and Bioproducts from Wastewater”. Manuscripts will be selected through both invitation and open call.
The massive use of fossil energy has produced a lot of greenhouse gases. Wastewater contains many valuable substances, such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and micronutrients. The concepts of renewable energy production and wastewater treatment can be combined through a certain production process. This can not only achieve wastewater remediation but also generate valuable energy. This is conducive to reducing the cost of wastewater, and at the same time reducing the use and consumption of fossil energy, presenting an effective way to implement sustainable development and having positive significance for carbon neutrality. The purpose of this Special Issue is to bring together innovative academicians and industrial experts in related fields and establish an academic platform to communicate the latest research and developmental activities.
Thank you very much!
Dr. Hongyu Ren
Prof. Dr. Fanying Kong
