Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Membrane processes are going to be essential to solving the new challenges related to water purification. For example, the presence in water and wastewater of emergent pollutants like pharmaceutical compounds, endocrine disruptors or antibiotic-resistant genes entails a change in the water treatment strategies, including processes to further treat or purify water. In addition, emergent membrane techniques such as forward osmosis or membrane distillation can also play an important role for water purification. In this Special Issue, authors are invited to submit original articles and reviews on membrane technologies for water purification. The contributions may be related to (i) membrane processes for drinking water production, (ii) membrane processes for the removal of emergent pollutants, (iii) membrane processes for the purification of water for hydrogen production, and (iv) emerging membrane processes for water purification (forward osmosis, membrane distillation, 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. 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.
