Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Membrane separation technologies have revolutionized various industrial processes due to their low cost, high efficiency, and environmental sustainability. In recent years, graphene oxide membranes (GOms) with multifunctional reactive groups and tunable microstructures have demonstrated great potential to facilitate water transportation, waste rejection, and gas separation, thereby drawing substantial interest. In addition, GO membranes are easy to fabricate, mechanically robust, and amenable to industrial-scale production at low cost. They have been utilized in a broad spectrum of important applications related to the fields of resources, energy, and the environment.
The purpose of this Special Issue, “High-performance graphene oxide separation membrane”, is to collect recent advancements in the development and application of innovative graphene oxide membranes. Research areas of interest include membrane fabrications, membrane characterizations, transport and separation mechanisms, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations/calculations, membrane stability, and scaling-up technologies of graphene oxide membranes. Topics related to nanofiltration, gas separation, and pervaporation are also welcome.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Membranes 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 2200 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.
