Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
CO2 emission has been increasing due to the increasing global demand for energy consumption by the growing global population. Consequently, global warming has worsened over the years, inspiring researchers to explore possible methods for CO2 utilization to minimize net CO2 emissions. Over the years, many catalysts have been developed for CO2 utilization and have been reported in increasing numbers of publications in this field. This Special Issue aims to include recent and emerging strategies to develop new and enhanced materials for CO2 activation and adsorption, as well as the catalytic reactions involving CO2 (including electrochemical, photochemical, and biological conversion of CO2), together with the integrated processes for CO2 conversion and reduction. The scope of this Special Issue will focus on recent advancements in the synthesis of catalyst materials for CO2 conversion into synthetic fuels, polymers, organic carbonates, and intermediate products. Both experimental and theoretical analyses are welcomed. In addition to full-length articles and short communications, we also welcome the submission of review papers by experts in this area for publication in this Special Issue.
We would like to invite interested researchers to submit their research work in this Special Issue on “Nanocatalysts for CO2 Utilization”, as this will be an excellent opportunity to be peer-reviewed by researchers with wide expertise in the field of catalysis, particularly on CO2 catalytic utilization systems.

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.
