Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
High-risk hazardous gases, such as hydrogen fluoride (HF), hydrogen chloride (HCl), sulfur dioxide (SO₂), ammonia (NH₃), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pose severe threats to human health and the environment. These gases, commonly released during industrial processes and chemical incidents, can lead to respiratory diseases and environmental degradation and contribute to global climate change. Porous materials, including activated carbons, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), zeolites, and mesoporous materials, offer promising solutions for the efficient capture, neutralization, and decomposition of these hazardous gases due to their high surface area, tunable pore structures, and chemical stability. This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest advancements in the development and application of porous materials for the adsorption, catalytic conversion, and removal of high-risk gases.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
