Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue “Frontiers in Induced Carbonate Precipitation” welcomes contributions related to the current frontiers in scientific understanding of induced carbonate precipitation, be it microbially, enzymatically, or any other biogeochemical method. Specific examples include but are not limited to the mineralogy of carbonates formed during induced carbonate precipitation; detailed characteristics of induced carbonate precipitates at molecular or micro scale; coupling effects between induced carbonate precipitation and the associated fluid flow, solute transport, and/or geomechanics; methods and procedures to control the spatial distribution of precipitates formed during induced carbonate precipitation; innovative methods to induce carbonate precipitation; and novel and innovative applications of induced carbonate precipitation.

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. Minerals 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.
