Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue titled "Advances in Catalysis for Sustainable Energy and Environmental Remediation" focuses on the most recent advancements and breakthroughs in the field of catalysis, with a specific emphasis on their practical utilization in the production of sustainable energy and the remediation of environmental issues. This topic emphasizes the crucial significance of catalysts in improving both the efficiency and the durability of energy processes, as well as in reducing environmental pollutants. Important subjects include the advancement of state-of-the-art catalytic materials and techniques, enhancements in the durability and efficiency of catalysts, and the use of catalytic technologies in renewable energy systems such as hydrogen generation, carbon dioxide reduction, oxygen evolution, and nitrogen reduction. Furthermore, the problem pertains to the utilization of catalysis in wastewater treatment. This Special Issue offers an extensive summary of the present trends, challenges, and prospects in the field of catalysis, with a focus on its critical role in attaining a sustainable and environmentally friendly energy future. It will accomplish this by providing a selection of advanced research papers and reviews.
