Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, global warming caused by climatic changes, energy depletion, and other environmental issues has led to the emergence of sustainable development of materials recycling and green technologies. It is believed that the employment of sustainable development will benefit the sustainability of economies and societies, positively impacting sustainability in the future. Green technologies include all the technologies which encourage environmentally friendly products that reduce the production of greenhouses gases (GHGs). Sustainable development through green technologies means innovating nature-friendly or eco-friendly technologies that not only meet human needs but at the same time minimize waste generation and support life today and in the future. Therefore, sustainable development must be achieved in the social, economic and environmental dimensions.
This research topic covers the wide-ranging sustainable development of materials recycling and green technologies. All studies which focus on materials recycling and the development of useful materials from waste, such as biomass waste and plastic waste, should be included in this Special Issue. This research topic also covers green technologies which encourage the sustainable development and green synthesis of advanced materials using renewable sources. All these studies provide new insights into sustainable development. The topics included are as follows:
- Green synthesis of nanomaterial using plant extracts.
- Recycling of biomass waste and plastic waste.
- Green technologies for sustainable development.
- Activated carbon from waste for environmental remediation.
- Development of renewable materials.

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.
