Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The sustainable supply of pure water to people in society is the greatest challenge in most developing and third world countries. Various methods are available for water purification. In recent years, water purification by biotechnologies and nanotechnologies have attracted researchers’ attention because these processes are low-cost, ecofriendly and carried out with relative ease. Thus, it is highly important to innovate and develop cost-effective biotechnological and nanotechnological processes for wastewater treatment, to ensure environmental and economic sustainability. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for global researchers to publish recent developments of biotechnology and nanotechnology in the areas of wastewater and water treatment. Within this context, we would like to invite you to submit your original research and review articles and disseminate and share your new findings on wastewater treatment using biotechnologies and nanotechnologies.

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. Sustainability 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 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.
