• Tentative title: Environmental Pollution and its Minimization and Prevention (Acronym of the special issue EPMP)
• A general introduction to the topic
With the worldwide increase in industrialization and movement of people towards larger cities, there has been a progressive increase in environmental pollution. The issues surrounding air, water, soil, and land pollution are now considered a global concern. Minimization of pollution involves the repeated reuse of products, the reduction in waste generation and the processing and recycling of used resources into new products. Pollution prevention practices reduce waste, improve safety and decrease disposal costs. The topic is suitable for the journal because it emphasizes the importance of reduction of environmental pollution.

Water Emerging Contaminants & Nanoplastics (WEC&N, Online ISSN:
2831-2597)
General information
Water Emerging Contaminants & Nanoplastics is a gold open access international journal intended to publish high quality, peer-reviewed, and original researches related to pollutants of emerging concern in both the natural and anthropogenic water cycles, as well as its effects on the ecosystems and human health. The journal publishes research articles, reviews, systematic reviews, short communications, commentaries, editorials, letters to editor and perspectives. Subject areas of following specific interests are most concerned:
•
Studies of any
aspect related to the occurrence, partition, transport, fate, and
effects of the different families of emerging contaminants, such as
pharmaceuticals, personal-care products, UV-filters, pesticides,
flame retardants, perfluorinated compounds and other industrial
chemicals, disinfection by-products, persistent organic pollutants,
endocrine disruptors, as well as, their metabolites and
environmental transformation products.
•
Novel analytical
methods, including new data treatment approaches (chemometric
studies), suspect, and non-target screening methods.
•
Novel sampling
methods (use of passive sampling devices, etc.).
•
New emerging
contaminants.
•
Modeling studies
on the occurrence, partition, transport, and fate of emerging
contaminants in the aquatic environment (surface and groundwater),
including the different involved phases and their validation using
field data.
•
Studies about
nanomaterials, nanocomposites, microplastics, and other related
contaminants in the aquatic environment.
•
Studies (field,
mesocosm, microcosm) combining the occurrence and effects of
emerging contaminants with other disciplines such as biology,
ecology, genomics, hydrology, hydromorphology, etc.
•
Studies related
to the joint effects of water pollution by emerging contaminants and
other environmental stressors on the receiving ecosystems.
•
Studies related
to the combined effects of water pollution by emerging contaminants
and global change (climate change, hydrologic alteration, and
land-use changes).
• etc.
