Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recently, the search for new and renewable sources of fuel has intensified. This is after the agreement of many countries and institutions to take steps to preserve the environment by reducing emissions and reducing fossil fuel consumption. As such, work has been performed to raise the efficiency of combustion systems’ performance, especially in the application of internal combustion engines. To achieve this goal, all research authorities sought to maximize the production of alternative fuels that can be used in internal combustion engines without making fundamental changes in the original fuel systems. The production of biofuels from used edible oils, the cultivation and harvesting of algae, and the fermentation of agricultural residues are among the most important research directions in this regard. In this context, researchers are working through innovative mathematical and numerical methods in their research with the use of nanometric material technologies in order to achieve the best performance parameters in internal combustion engine systems.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
