Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomass combustion processes have always been used to obtain energy; however, it is necessary to determine the impact on the environment and to study new abatement systems and optimize the current operating conditions in order to reduce the emission of these pollutants.
Combustion leads to the release of PM, NOx, CO2, CO, VOC, SVOC, and other pollutants, depending on the combustion and fuel conditions. These pollutants in the atmosphere participate in the complex atmospheric chemistry reactions and lead to the formation of secondary pollutants or negatively impact humans and the environment.
This Special Issue of Atmosphere will showcase the most recent studies and activities on the effects of combustion process. This Special Issue aims to collect studies that help to better understand the consequences of combustion both in boilers (through the study of emissive models, the development of new abatement systems, the determination of emission factors, etc.) and in open areas.

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. Atmosphere 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.
