Membrane-Based Processes and Applications for Water Reclamation

Dear Colleagues,

In the last decade, large efforts have been made to treat municipal and industrial wastewater as well as to reclaim water from non-convetional resources through the implementation of membrane technology. Thus, this Special Issue focuses on presenting recent developments in membrane-based processes and applications with a special emphasis on water reclamation and resource recovery. Topics of interest include, but not limited to, the following:

• Membrane bioreactors and fouling;
• Emerging fouling mitigation techniques;
• Anaerobic membrane bioreactors;
• Osmotic membrane bioreactors;
• Nutrients’ recovery and membrane reactors;
• Water reclamation from non-convetional resources;
• Desalination of brakisk and seawater;
• Attached growth processes integrating membranes;
• Biofilm formation;
• Membrane nanotechnology;
• Membrane porous materials and functionality;
• Membrane technology and disinfection;
• Salinity gradient energy;
• Fate and removal of micropollutants by membrane processes;
• Membrane permeability and transport phenomena;
• Membranes and cleaning processes;
• Membrane separation processes;
• Biosolids retention and effluent quality;
• MBR operation control.

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-anonymized 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.
