Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This conference series was initiated in 1986 and organised by professors at University of Wageningen, The Netherlands, both in 1986 and in 1992. In 2005, the third conference in this series was organised at the University of Manchester, UK. In 2008, the Lomonosow State University in Moscow, Russia, chaired the conference. In 2017, the fifth edition of this series was organised by professors at University of Rostock, Germany. The hybrid edition of the sixth BNCM conference was held in Milano in May 2022. The seventh International Conference on Biocatalysis in Non-conventional media (BNCM 2024, https://www.ntnu.edu/bncm2024) will be organised in Trondheim, Norway, 26–29 May, and the newest research from experts in the field of biocatalysed reactions, both in academia and industry, will be presented. Moreover, the participants of BNCM 2024 will have the opportunity to present their latest results via oral presentations. Young researchers and PhD students are encouraged to present their work as posters.
The present Special Issue will feature the works presented at BNCM 2024, as well as additional contributions in the field of biocatalysis, ranging from synthesis and characterizations to catalytic applications. In detail, this Special Issue will cover the following topics: (i) novel non-conventional reaction media for biocatalysis; (ii) water- and solvent-free reaction systems; (iii) non-conventional media in flow biocatalysis; (iv) biphasic and multi-phase biocatalytic systems; (v) BNCM, from labscale to industrial scale; (vi) kinetics and thermodynamics of enzyme-catalyzed reactions in non-conventional media; (vii) non-conventional media for whole-cell versus cell-free biocatalytic systems; and (viii) sustainable biocatalytic reaction engineering in non-conventional media.
Authors with expertise in any of the above topics are cordially invited to submit their manuscripts to this Special Issue of Catalysts. Significant full papers and review articles are very welcome.

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.
