Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Process intensification is a promising pathway in the development of sustainable and cost-effective chemical process systems. Its realization requires the development, design, and optimization of chemical processes at multiple scales, including the molecular, fluid cluster, equipment, and process scales. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive perspective on this topic to attract widespread attention from scientists and engineering with regard to this concept, in order to build more efficient and eco-friendly chemical processes. The topics we are interested in include, but are not limited to:
- Process development, design, optimization and integration;
- Process equipment of reaction, separation, heat transfer, etc.;
- Synthesis of catalysts and adsorbing material, etc.;
- Hydrodynamics, mass transfer, heat transfer;
- Reaction kinetics and mechanism;
- Molecular design and simulation.

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.
