Advances in Catalytic Wet Peroxide Oxidation

Dear Colleagues,

Catalytic wet peroxide oxidation (CWPO) has been experiencing a great deal of increasing interest from specialists in water treatment. This interest arises from the simple operation and cost of the process, capable of being applied at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, providing a suitable catalyst is used. In the quest to bring CWPO to the forefront position of advanced treatment technologies, researchers are covering different topics, including catalyst development, characterization, mechanistic and kinetic assessment, catalyst stability and deactivation, in-situ production of hydrogen peroxide, process intensification and optimization. In addition, topics related to new reactor and process design and configurations and application in the treatment of complex multi-phasic systems, as well as process scale-up and integration in water treatment units, are also subject of focus.

Authors with expertise in any topic related to catalytic oxidation with hydrogen peroxide are cordially invited to submit their manuscripts to this Special Issue of Catalysts. Significant full papers and review articles are very welcome. The Special Issue will cover various aspects related to CWPO in all of its diversity, as well as other areas on the boundaries.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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. Catalysts 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 2200 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.
