Special Issue Information

We are pleased to invite you to contribute to a Special Issue of the journal Processes (MDPI) titled “Advanced Separation and Purification Processes”.

The field of separation and purification is essential in several industrial and environmental applications, ranging from chemical manufacturing to water treatment. As advancements in technology and methodology continue to improve, staying abreast of the latest developments and innovations is crucial. This Special Issue aims to gather high-quality research papers, reviews, and case studies that focus on the most recent advancements in separation and purification processes.

We welcome submissions on a variety of topics including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Innovative separation techniques and equipment;
  • Advances in membrane technology;
  • Adsorption and desorption processes;
  • Distillation and extraction methods;
  • Chromatography and ion exchange;
  • Biotechnological separation processes;
  • Applications in pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and environmental engineering;
  • Computational modeling and simulation of separation processes.

This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current research trends and future directions in the field. We encourage researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to share their findings and insights, contributing to a collective advancement in knowledge and application.
