Dear colleagues,
After the first successful Special Issue published in the journal Catalysts focused on “Environmental Catalysis in Advanced Oxidation Processes”, the second edition titled “Environmental Catalysis in Advanced Oxidation Processes, 2nd Edition” was launched.
Population growth, industrial development, and agricultural increases are linked to the release into the environment of a variety of toxic pollutants that cannot be naturally degraded. In recent decades, a group of chemical oxidation technologies called advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have attracted considerable interest in pollutant removal applications. AOPs are based on generating highly reactive and nonselective hydroxyl radicals (OH∙), for which there are several approaches, e.g., Fenton, UV and ozone-based processes, as well as heterogeneous photocatalytic processes.
We kindly invite authors to submit original work addressing the synthesis and characterization of novel heterogeneous catalysts and their use in AOPs for removing complex organic and recalcitrant pollutants from the environment. Of particular interest are papers that investigate novel reactor systems and practical applications of AOPs. All information can be found at the following link:

Deadline: 20 October 2024
