Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the development of human society and the increase in the demand for water, water pollution is becoming increasingly serious. Types of wastewater mainly include domestic sewage and industrial wastewater (dyeing wastewater, coking wastewater, leather wastewater, pharmaceutical wastewater, etc.). The harmful chemical components in wastewater discharged into natural water bodies without treatment will cause devastating disasters to the water quality and aquatic organisms. The consumption of polluted water can also cause a variety of diseases. Therefore, wastewater must be treated so that it meets environmental discharge standards. The technology used to treat wastewater includes physical treatment, biological treatment, and chemical treatment. Among the physical treatment technologies, adsorption method is favored by most researchers because of its simplicity, high efficiency, and low cost. Biological treatments include anaerobic treatment and aerobic treatment and has the advantages of having a simple process flow and being low cost. As an efficient and green chemical treatment technology, advanced oxidation technology has been attracting attention from many researchers because of its advantages such as mild conditions, rapid reaction, and simple operation. This Special Issue, entitled “Process Optimization and Technology Development of Water Pollution Control”, focuses on the latest novel developments in approaches and technology for the control of water pollution. This issue will publish new research papers, reviews, case reports, conference papers, etc.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
