Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid increase in the consumption of industrial products in recent decades has contributed to the comprehensive increase in environmental pollution by various types of chemicals. The subsistence of clean water as the most important resource on Earth is the common interest of the whole of humanity. The permanent development of novel, efficient, innocuous technologies for wastewater remediation represents an inevitable challenge for the entire scientific community. In terms of research and development of wastewater treatment methods, an integral approach that covers both fundamental and practical aspects is necessary so that the removal is complete, sustainable, and safe for the environment, without secondary pollution. Facing the increasing challenges, even the well-established technologies for water purification need improvements and optimization to fit these goals. Bringing together the scientific and technological knowledge with the recognition of the long-range effects of their application should contribute to the finding of optimal solutions that will assure enough safe water for the living world in the near future.
This Special Issue, titled “Advanced Wastewater Treatment Processes and Technologies”, seeks high-quality works focusing on the recent progress in the development of wastewater treatment processes with minimal negative impact on the environment and humanity. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- The implementation of green materials in wastewater treatment processes.
- Optimization of wastewater treatment process.
- Development of the methodologies for the removal of target pollutants.
- Development of novel materials with potential applications in green technologies.
- Studies of treatment by-products, secondary pollution, and toxicology.
- Modelling and simulations.
We look forward to your submissions.

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.
