Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With increased urbanization, more people live in the city causing a variety of pollutants to the urban environment. These pollutants widely existing in air, water and soil are threating human health; for instance, over 6 million deaths worldwide were due to air pollution in 2019. Therefore, the development of controlling technologies has attracted more attention. Because of less secondary pollution and lower energy costing, catalytic technology is considered as the best approach. For example, the emission of NOx is reduced by NH3-SCR, indoor formaldehyde can be eliminated by catalytic oxidation, and organic dye in water can be decomposed via photocatalysis. However, the widespread application of catalysts results in some problems concerning lifetime, costing, as well as regeneration and post-treatment of inactivate catalyst. This Special Issue call for papers for Catalysts invites research contributions on the latest multidisciplinary advances on Environmental Catalysis covering these crucial fields:
(1) Noble metal catalyst with high dispersion, single atom catalyst
(2) Application of non-noble catalyst, rare earth material
(3) Modulation of strong interaction between support and metal
(4) Mechanism of catalyst poisoning at environment condition
(5) Prolonged lifetime of environmental catalyst
(6) Resource recycling
Submit your paper and select the Journal “Catalysts” and the Special Issue “Catalytic Materials: Elimination of Environmental Pollutants” via: MDPI submission system. Please contact the Guest Editor or the journal editor ([email protected]) for any queries. Our papers will be published on a rolling basis and we will be pleased to receive your submission once you have finished it.

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. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2200 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.
