Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fossil fuels have been used as major energy sources in power generation, transportation, and industrial sectors because of their abundance and inexpensive price. However, critical issues related to a harmful effect on human health and the environment by their utilization cannot be overlooked have risen. There has also been tremendous pressure on fields of energy systems using fossil fuels to restrict pollutant emissions (CO2, NOx, and SO2), because these gas emissions in the atmosphere increase energy consumption in the world. Accordingly, reduction technology for gas emissions has been firmly established from fundamental to advanced research on industrial energy systems in the last several decades.
This Special Issue of Energies focuses on recent advances in reduction technologies of gas emissions in combustion-related applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
- Emission control technologies by experimental and numerical approaches;
- Emission control technologies in pre-combustion, in-furnace combustion, and post-combustion;
- Emission control technologies in power generation, transportation, and industrial process;
- New process and equipment development for efficient gas emission reduction;
- Utilization in various fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, biomass, and their blends);
- Optimization for emission control with machine learning applications in energy systems.

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.
