Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Organic pollutants are widely dispersed in industrial wastewater and have caused widespread environmental concerns. Photocatalysis has been a hotspot of research as an environmentally benign, low-cost and highly efficient approach to the decomposition of organic pollutants.
This Special Issue of Catalysts will cover the recent advancements in photocatalyst development, water environmental remediation applications, industrial wastewater treatment, reaction mechanisms, and modeling processes for water decontamination. The Guest Editors encourage submissions in the following areas:
- The development of photocatalytic materials;
- Photocatalytic-based process degradation of emerging contaminants in wastewater;
- Wastewater recycling and repurposing via photocatalysts;
- Disinfection and decontamination via advanced oxidation processes (photocatalysis-, ozone, UV, H2O2 and PMS-based processes);
- Photocatalytic degradation processes and intermediates of emerging contaminants in wastewater.
If you would like to submit papers for publication in this Special Issue or have any questions, please contact the in-house editor, Mr. Ives Liu ([email protected]).

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. Catalysts 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 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.
