Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wastewater treatment has been a worldwide issue and has in recent years become a significant problem in a number of countries. This is partly due to inefficient wastewater treatment that leads to continuous and accumulating environment contamination and compromises natural water quality. In order to mitigate the coming water crisis, wastewater must be viewed not as a waste but as a valuable resource, providing water for different purposes, nutrients, and other value-added products. Thus, the adaptation of existing or development of new reliable technologies and materials is needed to be able to valorize this precious resource. Indeed, recent research has shown that both municipal and industrial wastewaters have much to offer.
The Special Issue “Emerging Technologies and Materials for Wastewater Treatment and Reclamation’’ is dedicated to physical, chemical, biological methods and their combination, as well as on new materials used in these methods. These methods can be but are not limited to membrane separation, photocatalysis, and biological treatment. This Special Issue aims to share current knowledge in the field with the research community and welcomes both original research and review papers.

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. Sustainability 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 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.
