Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The topics in this section are focused on the recent theoretical and applied researches in the area of renewable fuel covering the fuel production, including renewable diesel, jet, gasoline, and oxygenated fuels used in mobile and stationary combustors; fuel property analysis, including physical and chemical properties; fuel combustion behaviors, including spray atomization, ignition, soot formation, flame propagation, flame structure, flame stability, combustion emissions, and chemical mechanism; engine operation with feeding renewable fuels; decarbonized fuels; process simulation and evaluation for producing renewable fuels; energy/exergy analysis, techno-economic analysis, and environmental assessment (life-cycle assessment); waste-to-energy concept; circular economic concept; fuel safety, storage, and distribution; feedstock survey and analysis.
The topic includes but is not limited to:
- Renewable fuel production (gasoline, jet, diesel, oxygenated fuels);
- Property analysis of renewable fuels;
- Combustion of renewable fuels (including spray atomization, ignition, soot formation, flame propagation, flame structure, flame stability, combustion emissions, chemical mechanism);
- Engine operation with renewable fuels;
- Decarbonized fuels;
- Process simulation for producing renewable fuels;
- Energy/exergy analysis for producing renewable fuels;
- Techno-economic analysis for producing renewable fuels;
- Life-cycle assessment for producing renewable fuels;
- Waste-to-energy process development;
- Circular economy;
- Renewable fuel distribution;
- Safety and storage for renewable fuels;
- Feedstock analysis for renewable fuels.

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.
