Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, the world has seen tremendous growth and improvement in the quality of human life. However, this progress has come at a cost, with the increasing consumption of traditional fossil fuels, environmental pollution, and food contamination presenting challenges to further development. To tackle these issues, innovative solutions are required. It has been reported that photocatalysis and electrocatalysis offer effective solutions to energy and pollution problems. As such, there is a need for further research in these areas.
With this in mind, we are proud to announce our Special Issue on "Advances in Photocatalysis and Electrocatalysis Applications". Our focus is on the current state and future prospects of photocatalytic and electrocatalytic technologies. We invite submissions of both original research papers and review articles in the fields of novel heterojunction material design, new synthetic methods development, and the discovery of new photocatalytic and electrocatalytic mechanisms. The scope of this Special Issue encompasses a wide range of applications, including, but not limited to, hydrogen production, degradation, carbon dioxide reduction, sterilization, and photochemical and electrochemical methods to treat microorganisms, gene detection, cancer cells, etc.

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. Catalysts 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 2200 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.
