Bioelectrocatalysis, from a Fundamental Understanding of Mechanisms to Synthesis of Molecules

Dear Colleagues,

Redox reactions are crucial to biology and chemistry as well as for environmental research. This Special Issue focuses on bioelectrochemical methods, addressing different aspects of this important field with the aim of achieving a basic understanding of the biocatalytic processes and their application in bioelectrochemical technology. Our focus is both on fundamental and applied research: Methods based on the electrocatalytic reaction of enzymes and bacteria, both as biofilms and suspended biomass, or methods based on metals, metalloids or organic molecules, and novel electrochemically active microorganisms from extreme environments. Submissions of pilot scale processes and precommercial bioelectrochemical processes are also encouraged.

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.
