Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Global climate change caused by the excessive emission of greenhouse gases has become one of the greatest threats to human survival in the 21st century. Based on the current situation, it is urgent to achieve carbon neutrality via the use of advanced materials and technologies, with a catalytic strategic focus on developments. Due to the depletion of natural resources and the environment as well as climate change, the future development of society will inevitably show the trend of a green, low-carbon, and circular economy, offering an opportunity for catalysis technology to continue to play a leading role. This Special Issue focuses on the novel processes of efficient thermal catalysis and electrocatalysis, as well as the disruptive innovation of photocatalysis, the key to which lies in creating functional catalysis routes to maximize the retention of functional groups. Furthermore, the rational design of catalysis routes and systems for energy molecules, alkenes, and aromatics should lead to revolutionary breakthroughs in catalytic routes to maximize the retention of functional groups.
I kindly invite you to submit a high-quality contribution to this Special Issue of “Green Energy and New Functional Materials through Catalysis for Carbon Neutrality” and to discuss the recent developments in the field. Review and original research articles are all welcome. Experimental as well as theoretical inquiries will be included.

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 2700 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.
