Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past few centuries, water resources around the world have experienced varying degrees of deterioration. Eutrophication is one of the most important representations of water pollutions and a process of ecosystem degradation and aging of water bodies. Eutrophication is characterized by the rapid growth of algae and other planktons, the decline in dissolved oxygen, the deterioration of water quality, and the mass death of fish and other organisms. It presents a global challenge in environmental management and has adversely affected the use of water resources, socioeconomic development, and human living conditions.
Over the past three decades, many conventional and novel methods that use physical, chemical, and biological processes have been applied to improve and eliminate contaminants in eutrophic lakes. However, their high cost, complex operation, likelihood of secondary pollution, and other shortcomings, represent potential issues. Therefore, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to study economic and feasible alga removal methods.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to provide a platform for scientists studying water eutrophication to publish their latest research results and provide a variety of new approaches for the prevention and treatment of water eutrophication.

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. International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
