Dear Colleagues,

Catalysis science is one of the most important cornerstones of modern industrial civilization. However, while catalysis science is indubitably beneficial to humanity, it also greatly increases the risk that the results of human activities will exceed what the environment can tolerate. Catalytic science has achieved great success in industrialization, but it is now facing new challenges when it comes to protecting the environment and ensuring the sustainable development of human beings. It is for this reason that environmental catalysis has recently come to be, whose main achievements so far have focused on air pollution control. This Special Issue welcomes both review and original research articles on the catalytic elimination of air pollutants, especially in motor vehicle exhaust and stationary source flue gas, including but not limiting to the following topics:

1. Selective catalytic reduction of NO_x;
2. Catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds;
3. Catalytic elimination of carbon monoxide;
4. Catalytic combustion of soot.

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. Catalysts 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.
