Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In this century, environmental issues have reached a critical juncture, demanding urgent attention and concerted global effort. Photocatalysis, utilizing light to drive chemical reactions, holds great potential in addressing environmental challenges. Various great works that focus on enhancing photocatalyst efficiency, expanding spectral response, clarifying the photodegradation process, etc., have emerged. This Special Issue seeks to explore and showcase the latest developments in photocatalysis for environmental applications, covering a spectrum of topics from the design and synthesis of novel photocatalytic materials to the fundamental understanding of reaction mechanisms and the translation of research into practical applications. We welcome submissions that delve into various facets of photocatalytic research for environmental applications, including, but not limited to, the following subtopics:
- Design, synthesis, and characterization of novel photocatalytic materials for environmental applications.
- Fundamental insight into photocatalytic mechanisms.
- Computational modeling and simulation of photocatalytic systems.
- Scaling up photocatalytic processes for industrial applications.
- Reviews on photocatalysis in environmental applications.

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.
