Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
While the scientific and technological revolution has greatly promoted the development of human civilization, it has also brought a series of problems to the earth, such as global warming and air pollution. To protect the environment, many countries such as the United States, European Union, China, India, Japan and Australia have announced their roadmaps and measures to reach carbon neutrality. As a key source of carbon emissions, energy conservation and emissions reduction in the energy sector are crucial to the realization of carbon neutrality. Various new combustion modes for improving efficiency and reducing emissions have recently become research hotspots in the energy field. Meanwhile, the efficient use of renewable/alternative fuels such as ammonia, hydrogen, ethanol and methanol can also be used to replace fossil fuels to reduce carbon emissions.
This Special Issue aims to present and disseminate the most recent advances and prospects related to the theory, experimentation, simulation and application of all types of low-emission combustion techniques. Both research and review articles are welcome.
Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
- Low-emission combustion techniques in IC engines, gas turbines, boilers and other burners;
- Cleaner and renewable fuels;
- Theory and application of renewable/alternative fuels;
- Advanced combustion measurements, diagnostic techniques and control technologies;
- Advanced combustion simulation methods and models;
- Advanced pollutant emission measurements and control techniques;
- Plasma-assisted combustion, lean combustion, HCCI and other advanced combustion modes;
- Low-/zero-emission transport planning and operation.

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. Energies 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.
