Summary

Introduction

Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. This Special Issue, entitled “New Perspectives in Photocatalytic Water Treatment”, was planned to cover all relevant topics related to photo-initiated oxidative processes in water treatment, with a special emphasis on pollutant abatement and microorganism inactivation, which were required for improving their practical uses. On the basis of previous experience, the following topics were followed: (i) water treatment and photocatalytic advanced oxidation processes; (ii) visible light active photocatalyst preparation, characterization, and applications; and (iii) inactivation of microorganisms, kinetics, and mechanism.
