Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, advanced and novel wastewater treatment technologies have obtained increased attention. An increasing number of new technologies with better performance and new applications have recently been developed, such as physical, chemical, and biological techniques and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Consequently, the development of new environmentally friendly technologies that are able to quantitatively and quickly remove organic pollutants and recover resources in wastewater has become an extremely urgent challenge.
This Special Issue aims to collect original, high-quality articles related to wastewater treatment. Fundamental and applied research papers covering multidisciplinary topics, as well as review papers with new perspectives, will be considered.
The scope of interest:
- Recent advances in wastewater treatment technology;
- Development of novel chemical oxidation technologies involving ozone-, chlorine-, peroxide-, UV-, electro-, catalyst-, and Fenton-based chemical oxidation processes;
- Evaluation of oxidation mechanisms involving (non-)radical species formation and utilisation;
- Understanding of oxidation byproduct formation, toxicity evolution, and operation optimisation;
- The synthesis and application of active catalysts for chemical oxidation treatments;
- The combination of chemical oxidation with other physical adsorption/separation or biological treatments.

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. Water 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 2600 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.
