South African Journal of Chemical Engineering

Publication of South African Institution of Chemical Engineers

South African Journal of Chemical Engineering (SAJCE) is a fully open access title requiring authors to pay a publication fee once the paper has been accepted for publication. The journal aims to be the principal open access journal for publication of high quality, original papers in all areas of chemical engineering.

The journal has a particular interest in publishing papers on the unique issues facing chemical engineering taking place in countries that are rich in resources but face specific technical and societal challenges, which require detailed knowledge of local conditions to address.

Core topic areas are:

Environmental process engineering
• treatment and handling of waste and pollutants
• the abatement of pollution, environmental process control
• cleaner technologies
• waste minimization
• environmental chemical engineering
• water treatment

Reaction Engineering
• modelling and simulation of reactors
• transport phenomena within reacting systems
• fluidization technology
• reactor design

Separation technologies
• classic separations
• novel separations

Process and materials synthesis
• novel synthesis of materials or processes, including but not limited to nanotechnology, ceramics, etc.

Metallurgical process engineering and coal technology
• novel developments related to the minerals beneficiation industry
• coal technology

Chemical Process Engineering
• Any other aspects not covered in the above-listed areas related to the chemical engineering discipline, such as process safety, thermodynamics and energy research, food engineering; bioprocess engineering; sustainability, etc.

Chemical engineering education
• guides to good practice
• novel approaches to learning
• education beyond university
