Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the first successful Special Issue on this topic (available here), we are happy to announce a second edition entitled “Advanced Catalysis for Green Fuel Synthesis and Energy Conversion, 2nd Edition”.
The considerable growth in the demand for energy and limited fossil fuel resources, together with environmental concerns, are major threats to the sustainable development of human beings. The utilization of green energy resources is considered to be a promising solution to this challenge. Catalysis plays a crucial role in the production of clean energy and its processes. Advances in low-cost, efficient, and eco-friendly catalysts are more important than ever.
This Special Issue, entitled “Advanced Catalysis for Green Fuel Synthesis and Energy Conversion, 2nd Edition”, will mainly comprise research on the state of the art of novel nanoscale functional materials and aims to provide an in-depth understanding of advanced catalysis for green fuel synthesis and next-generation energy conversion applications. All studies (experimental and theoretical) within the scope of this Special Issue, including original research and review articles, short communications, and perspective articles, are welcome for submission. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following potential topics:
- Green fuel synthesis;
- Energy conversion reactions;
- Photo- and/or electrocatalysis;
- New materials for catalytic applications;
- Characterization techniques for studying the catalyst;
- CO2, CH4, and biomass conversion;
- Hydrogen production.
If you would like to submit papers to this Special Issue or have any questions, please contact the in-house editor, Ms. Rita Lin ([email protected]).

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.
