Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The world is facing major problems related to energy needs, waste generation, and environmental concerns. Process intensification is one of the responses to the major challenge of maintaining the competitiveness of companies in the sector, which are constantly looking for new solutions to meet the ever-increasing demand for products. The intensification of processes has become a topic of growing interest and aims to effectively coordinate the different unit operations and activate synergistic effects during the development of sustainable and efficient chemical and/or biological processes.
This Special Issue on "Process Intensification and Application for Bioprocesses and Green Chemical Engineering" will present new advances in research and development related to process intensification approaches and methods that can significantly reduce equipment size, energy consumption, or waste generation for biomass transformation and valorization processes. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Intensified reactor technologies;
- Intensified separation processes;
- Catalysis and biocatalysis for efficient catalytic processes;
- Green solvents for chemistry;
- Alternative energy sources.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
