Advances in Innovative Adsorbents

Dear Colleagues,

Adsorption stands as a fundamentally efficient process capable of generating a diverse array of chemicals, thus serving as a cornerstone for the sustainable evolution of industries. The literature offers an array of opportunities for further exploration into the design, synthesis, advancement, examination, and simulation of innovative adsorbents, with a particular focus on porous materials, e.g., activated carbons for separation applications in gaseous and liquid phases.

This Special Issue welcomes contributions focusing on various aspects of adsorbents, such as their production and modification techniques, especially for biomass-derived adsorbents; their diverse characterization methodologies; and the modeling and exploration of their efficiency.

We encourage submissions on a broad spectrum of topics within innovative adsorption processes (original research and review papers). These may include, but are not limited to, sustainable processes, innovative adsorbent synthesis, their comprehensive characterization, and their wide implications in global environmental sustainability.

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.
