Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sorption is considered one of the most efficient techniques for water and wastewater treatment. Different types of anorganic and biological sorbents are used for this purpose. In recent years, special attention has been paid to hybrid sorbents (organic–anorganic and nano-microbial sorbents). The basic requirements to be met for a sorbent are a high removal eficiency, ecological safety, possibility of multipliple uses, and resistance to aggressive substances.
This Special Issue, titled "Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications of Biosorbents”, aims to provide the scientific community with achievements in the following topics:
- Production of biological sorbents from raw materials
- Production of nano-based biosorbents
- Develepment of the procedure of improving the sorption charactetistics of already widely used biosorbents
- Application of biosorbents for industrial wastewater treatment
- Application of biosorbents for domestic wastewater treatment

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. Coatings 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 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.
