Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Sustainable development is a method of development that involves the reduction of the consumption of renewable and non-renewable resources. One way to achieve this is to use catalysts to increase the efficiency of chemical reactions. There are a lot of types of catalysts, depending on the application. There are the special catalysts for chemical synthesis, for air purification, and for oil processing. The recent interest is caused by photocatalysts, which are used, for example, for water and air purification. In this Special Issue, we are interested in widely understood catalysts that are used to help save the environment.
It is my pleasure to invite you to submit original research papers within the scope of this Special Issue. Short communication and state-of-the-art reviews are also welcome.
Dr. Magdalena Janus
Guest Editor
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).
