Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The goal of wastewater treatment systems has extended from contaminant removal to improving sustainability. It includes technology and strategy innovations to improve resource recovery and reduce consumption during wastewater treatment. Resource recovery involves effluent reuse, energy recovery, nutrient recovery and recovering pollutants such as metals and organics. Resource consumption reduction includes the improvement of treatment capability with effective energy and chemical usage. The Special Issue on “Sustainable Water Treatment and Contaminants Control: Technologies and Strategies” of the journal Water explores the barriers and opportunities of sustainable wastewater treatment and aims to bring ideas to academia and industry fields for sustainable wastewater treatment.
It welcomes Original Research, Reviews, Mini Reviews and Perspectives on the innovations in technologies and strategies for sustainable water treatment and contaminants control. The themes include, but are not limited to:
- Use of green materials, e.g., catalysts and adsorbents for sustainable wastewater treatment.
- Green technologies and processes for wastewater treatment.
- Sustainable solutions for various challenges in water treatment and management.
- Case studies on applications of innovations in sustainabile wastewater treatment.
- Resource, e.g., nutrients, energy and metals, recovery processes from wastewater.

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. Water is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
