Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the growing emphasis on enhancing the sustainability and efficiency of industrial plants, catalytic process integration and optimization are attracting additional interest across the chemical engineering community. Some of the hallmarks of process integration and optimization include a holistic perspective in design and the enhancement of catalytic material and the optimization of existing processes into modern design approaches. These techniques can be applied to individual unit operations, multiple units, a whole industrial facility, or even a cluster of industrial plants.
This Special Issue, entitled “Continuous Production and Catalysis Optimization of Chemical Industry Processes”, aims to cover recent advances in the development and application of catalytic process integration and optimization. Topics include, but are not limited to, methods and/or applications in the following areas:
- Systematic approaches to industrial catalytic processes;
- Optimization of catalytic materials;
- Optimization of unit and total processes;
- Mitigation of environmental impact;
- Continuous production studies of emerging processes (e.g., biomass valorization, and biorefining);
- Integration of renewable energy in catalytic processes;
- Processes design from laboratory to industrial scale;
- Implementation of new catalytic and adsorption processes into industrial practice.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
