Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Supercritical water oxidation has critical applications in treating hazardous wastes in many industries, including radioactive waste, rocket propellant waste, chemical weapon waste, munitions waste, and pharmaceutical waste. Still, the corrosion of component materials and the salt precipitation problem have been limiting its broad commercial prospects. Although many different reactors and processes have been designed through academic research and industry efforts, a general solution to reduce the cost of supercritical water oxidation technology applications remains to be found. Therefore, new strategies are urgently needed to control severe corrosion and the clogging of equipment by salt deposition. Hydrothermal molten salt and hydrothermal flame are up-and-coming methods. This Special Issue plans to give an overview of recent advances in the materials for supercritical water oxidation technology and their applications in different areas. This Special Issue also aims to contribute to the progress in the synthesis, characterization, and application of candidate materials for supercritical water oxidation technology devices in the treatment of refractory hazardous wastes.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Salt deposition and plugging for supercritical water technology;
- Corrosion of materials in supercritical water oxidation;
- Future perspectives of candidate materials for supercritical water oxidation technology;
- Application of supercritical water oxidation in the treatment of refractory waste materials.

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. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
