Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to invite you to contribute to a special issue on "Solar Photocatalysis". The special issue will appear in the open access journal Energies (www.mdpi.com/journal/energies). Manuscripts need to be full research papers and present original, unpublished work focusing on the scientific and technological advances of Solar Photocatalysis for the remediation of water, municipal and industrial wastewater and air treatment. The main topics are: i) process fundamentals; ii) reaction kinetics and mechanisms; iii) process modeling and simulation; iv) heterogeneous photocatalysis; v) homogeneous photocatalysis; vi) new materials; vii) monitoring and control process; viii) process economics. All contributions will undergo the usual peer reviewing process by independent referees and are assessed by the same high standards of peer review with regard to novelty and research significance.

Prof. José Antonio Sánchez Pérez
Guest Editor

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. Energies 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 2600 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.

Highly hierarchical hollow bismuth tungstate (Bi2WO6) microspheres self-assembled by thin nanoplates have been fabricated via a facile template-free solvothermal route. The possible growth pattern and formation mechanism of hierarchical hollow Bi2WO6 microspheres was investigated. The excellent visible-light-driven photocatalytic performance on rhodamine B (RhB) degradation was displayed by hierarchical hollow Bi2WO6 microspheres. Such well-organized hierarchical hollow Bi2WO6 microspheres show potential application in water treatment fields by full use of solar energy. Full article
