Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ecological water environments and water quality are closely linked with human life. However, the discharge of wastewater containing various toxic organic pollutants into water lacking efficient treatment seriously threatens human health and natural environments. Although Advanced Oxidation Technologies (AOTs) are considered promising for refractory organics degradation, several shortcomings, including inactivation of catalysts, low utilization of oxidants, unwanted adverse reactions, and seriously inhibitory effects in complex systems, still limit AOTs’ application in wastewater treatment. However, deep insight into catalytic mechanisms, including the confinement effect, reactive oxygen species (ROS) transformation, charge migration and interface interaction, and possible degradation pathway and intermediates can promote advancement in this field. This Special Issue presents a platform for scholars to share current research and new findings concerning AOTs (Fenton/Fenton-like reactions, catalytic ozonation, photocatalytic oxidation/reduction, electrocatalysis, chlorine disinfection, etc).
This Special Issue welcomes papers focused on but not limited to the following themes:
- Advanced treatment of sewage;
- AOT and its possible synergization for processes;
- Treatment of organic, refractory, and other pollutants in wastewater.

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. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health 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 2500 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.
