Research on Soil and Groundwater Remediation

Dear Colleagues,

Regarding soil and groundwater, human activities have induced significant effects on land and water use, both for drinking supply and agricultural development. Every year, larger areas are subjected to limitations in their use, and at the same time, the scarcity of water triggers explosive effects in some regions of the world. Technologies generally used for the remediation of soil and groundwater are often very expensive without being certain of their final target. Long-term sources can lead to long-lasting interventions, which can reveal the weakness of traditional approaches. New technologies/procedures are constantly the focus of scientists and researchers for a more sustainable and effective remediation of soils and groundwater. This Special Issue is intended to present recent research in this field. Procedures at the lab or field scale as well as innovative numerical approaches are suitable for this Special Issue.

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. Water 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 2600 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.
