Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue will concentrate on the practical advancements in electrosynthesis and electrochemical conversions. On the one hand, the emphasis on the photo- and electro-chemical technologies enable the production or conversion of basic chemical compounds as well as high value-added products (e.g., oxidants, H2O2, H2, CO2, NH3). On the other hand, components of cells and electrolyzers will be emphasized, including systems, stacks, and industrial processes. The subjects that will be addressed include, but are not restricted to, the following:

  • Utilizing electrochemistry for energy production and energy conversion;
  • Development of electrodes and membranes;
  • Photo- and electro-synthesis of oxidants and production of high-value products, as well as separations;
  • Heat, current distribution and resistance as well as advanced modelling and diagnostics in large systems;
  • Flow-dynamic engineering;
  • Electrochemistry and photochemistry in chemical fuel production and chemical synthesis;
  • Photo- and electro-chemical devices development and their applications;
  • Photo- and electro-conversion of CO2;
  • Photo- and electro-production of hydrogen and hybrid processes.

Dr. Carlos A. Martínez-Huitle

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
