Special ISSUE for Detlef
Dear Colleagues,
We are writing to invite you to contribute a paper to Applied Catalysis A: General Special Issue in honor of Professor Detlef W. Bahnemann on the occasion of his 70th Birthday.
Following his retirement as Professor and Head of the Photocatalysis and Nanotechnology Unit at the Institut für Technische Chemie, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany, at the end of 2021, Detlef W. Bahnemann is now serving as Director of the Laboratory “Photoactive Nanocomposite Materials”, Saint-Petersburg State University, Russia and as Distinguished Professor in the School of Environmental Science and Engineering at Shaanxi University of Science & Technology, China. He is an active researcher in the area of photocatalysis and a recognized authority on synthesis, characterization of photocatalysts and environmental and energy photocatalysis. He has edited 5 books, co-authored over 550 journal articles, 45 chapters/reviews, and 18 patents. His works have received over 67000 citations with an h-index of 103 (from Google Scholar).
In honor and recognition of Professor Detlef W. Bahnemann’s outstanding contributions to the field of photocatalysis and on his 70th Birthday, we hope to guest edit a Special Issue of Applied Catalysis A: General devoted to the latest advances in the field and to speculate on future directions.
We would be delighted if you could accept our invitation and have every confidence that your contribution would be very timely and of high interest to the community.
The submission portal is open now:
https://www.editorialmanager.com/apcata/default1.aspx, and will closed by 01/12/2022.
