Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the growing emphasis on ultra-low emissions and carbon neutrality, the control and cleaning of pollutants’ combustion technology are captivating the interest of both the environment and combustion communities. The latest advances in the control of flue gas pollutants and clean combustion processes are focused on developing innovative methods to reduce emissions, improve air quality, and promote sustainable energy production. From basic modifications to increasing the efficiency of an adsorbent or catalyst, to fascinating demonstrations of novel combustion processes such as oxy-fuel combustion and chemical looping combustion, we have witnessed the development of clean combustion in recent years, which is still ongoing.

This Special Issue entitled the “Control of Flue Gas Pollutants and Clean Combustion Processes", aims to collect up-to-date advances in the broad subject area of pollution control and clean combustion. Your cutting-edge work will be highly appreciated. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Advanced emission control technologies;
  • Novel combustion processes;
  • Renewable energy sources;
  • Integration of CCUS into fossil fuel combustion.

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.
