Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

For this Special Issue, we invite established researchers to submit high-quality review papers on recent progress and future perspectives on “Wastewater Treatment and Reuse”. 

Review papers should critically address recent developments in wastewater treatment and reuse (WWTR), to serve as benchmark references with high citation potential in the sector; to assess and improve the understanding of wastewater treatment (including nature based technologies) and reuse issues that face the water sector today; and to devise rational strategies and methods for pollutant control and inspire future research work. It is expected that submissions will contribute novel insights and perspectives based on previously published research.

The following topics will be considered:

  • Urban or industrial wastewater treatment and its sustainability;
  • Advanced wastewater treatment technology costs and effectiveness against emerging pollutants;
  • Nature-based treatment and ecological aspects of WWTR (ecotechnologies, nature-based treatments systems, ecological engineering, and the role of living organisms in wastewater treatment);
  • Key technological and research issues on wastewater reuse and resources recovery;
  • Wastewater-based circular economy;
  • Wastewater reuse strategies and reuse effects on public health, the WEF Nexus, and public sentiment;
  • Wastewater reuse implementation issues and lessons learned;
  • Wastewater reuse issues and challenges in specific countries and in different climatic areas;
  • Economic and regulatory aspects of wastewater reuse.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at mdpi.longhoe.net 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.
