Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Adsorption is a well-established operation that is commonly utilized in water decontamination and has been considered for application in the separation and recovery of substances of economic importance or at risk of scarcity, such as phosphate and technology metals. Many innovative non-conventional adsorbents based on molecular or macromolecular architectures, of natural or synthetic origin, have been proposed to remove environmental pollutants from water and wastewater via liquid–solid adsorption processes.
The main objective of this Special Issue is to provide an overview of recent advances in the development and design of novel adsorbents with superior adsorption capacities for the removal of various pollutants in the environment, which may involve new preparation methods, material designs, characterization techniques, and analyses of the adsorption mechanisms and adsorption capacity of various pollutants.

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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
