Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The continuous release of CO2 by human activities poses a significant threat to human survival, caused by the disruption of the global climate and the upset of the carbon balance among the four biosphere reservoirs: earth, air, and water. Converting CO2 into useful products has been considered one of the most appealing approaches to rebalancing the carbon cycle. This not only mitigates its environmental impact, but also provides a sustainable means of producing fuels and chemicals. Catalysis and electrocatalysis play pivotal roles in the field of carbon dioxide (CO2) conversion. In this innovative approach, catalysts serve as facilitators, accelerating the conversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) into valuable and environmentally beneficial products, such as fuels and chemicals.
We are pleased to invite you to submit your research papers to this Special Issue, entitled “New Insight in Catalysis and Electrocatalysis for CO2 Conversion”. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the regulation of catalytic reactions and the design/innovation of catalysts for the production of value-added products using CO2.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
