Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades tremendous efforts have been made in different scientific and technological aspects to improve inorganic membrane processes from the laboratory scale to industrial implementation for energy and environmental applications. Due to their great mechanical, structural, chemical, and thermal stability, as well as their antifouling capabilities, more resilient inorganic membranes with an ultralong service life compared to polymeric membranes have been increasingly used. There is a global research focus on inorganic membrane technology, with notable breakthroughs in several areas. The development of sophisticated fouling management techniques is crucial, as is fundamental understanding. For larger-scale industrial applications, lowering costs and increasing efficiency are two crucial yet difficult application-oriented concerns. Full-scale inorganic membrane facilities for diverse energy and environmental applications have been successfully developed and operated all over the world.
This Special Issue, ‘’Novel Inorganic Membranes: Synthesis and Applications’’, focuses on the synthesis, characterization, application, and mechanism analysis of inorganic membranes, as well as the resulting applications in energy and environmental areas. All studies (experimental and theoretical) within the scope of this Special Issue, including original research and review articles, short communications, and perspective articles, are invited for submission.

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. Membranes 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.
