Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will provide an authoritative platform for both academic and engineering communities to exchange and share their latest research findings and application cases related to the treatment of emerging pollutants in water. At the same time, we will promote cooperation and exchange between experts and scholars in different fields, as well as promote the innovation and development of water treatment technology for emerging pollutants. This Special Issue will focus on water treatment technologies for different types of emerging pollutants.
In this Special Issue, we welcome research papers, review papers, and case studies related to emerging pollutants, including, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Emerging pollutants;
- Microplastics;
- Drug residues;
- Organic pollutants;
- Heavy metals and inorganic pollutants.
For different categories of emerging pollutants, this Special Issue will showcase and introduce relevant water treatment technologies and methods. Through research on these technologies and methods, people can better understand and solve the challenges posed by emerging pollutants to the water environment. In addition, this Special Issue will provide practical solutions to solve the problem of emerging pollutants in the water environment through the research and application of water treatment technology for emerging pollutants. Through the review and collation of the existing literature, this Special Issue will provide a clear basis for the positioning of emerging pollutant water treatment technologies.
