5 Year impact factor: 7.1
Impact factor: 6.4

Carbon Resources Conversion (CRC) publishes fundamental studies and industrial developments regarding relevant technologies aiming for the clean, efficient, value-added, and low-carbon utilization of carbon-containing resources as fuel for energy and as feedstock for materials or chemicals from, for example, fossil fuels, biomass, syngas, CO2, hydrocarbons, and organic wastes via physical, thermal, chemical, biological, and other technical methods. CRC also publishes scientific and engineering studies on resource characterization and pretreatment, carbon material innovation and production, clean technologies related to carbon resource conversion and utilization, and various process-supporting technologies, including on-line or off-line measurement and monitoring, modeling, simulations focused on safe and efficient process operation and control, and process and equipment optimization. To facilitate the editorial process, a submission should fall within one of the following categories as a technical subject. The exploitation of carbon resources and treatments for nuclear and non-carbon resources are not within the scope of this journal.Characterization and PretreatmentThermochemical ConversionBiological ConversionElectrochemical ConversionCatalysis in ConversionCarbon MaterialsEnvironmental RemediesProcess TechnologiesEditorial Board

Chem Catalysis

ISSN: 2667-1093
Impact factor: 11.5

Chem Catalysis is a monthly journal publishing innovative and insightful research on fundamental and applied catalysis, providing a platform for researchers across chemistry, chemical engineering, and related fields to disseminate and promote their work. The journal is a premier resource for scientists, researchers, and engineers in both academia and industry, bridging the multidisciplinary aspects and scales of the field. Chem Catalysis publishes experimental and theoretical studies in all fields of catalysis-heterogeneous catalysis, homogeneous catalysis, and biocatalysis-that report transformative methods, tools, and technologies that are of value to all communities. We give particular emphasis to reports that significantly advance our understanding of existing systems, expand the current knowledge with novel catalysts, and connect fundamental catalysis insights to the real world for the benefit of society.Catalysis is a key technology for improving the efficiency and sustainability of the production of chemicals and is central to advancing research in renewable energy, healthcare, and environmental science. We therefore ask authors to categorize their research into at least one of the following five Sustainable Development Goals identified by the United Nations:Good health and well-being (SDG 3)Affordable and clean energy (SDG 7)Clean water and sanitation (SDG 6)Climate action (SDG 13)Industry, innovation, and infrastructure (SDG 9)Visit the Cell Press website for more information about Chem Catalysis - http://www.cell.com/ChemCatalysis/home

Enzyme and Microbial Technology

ISSN: 0141-0229
5 Year impact factor: 3.2
Impact factor: 3.4

Biotechnology Research and ReviewsEnzyme and Microbial Technology is an international, peer-reviewed journal publishing original research and reviews, of biotechnological significance and novelty, on basic and applied aspects of the science and technology of processes involving the use of enzymes, micro-organisms, animal cells and plant cells. We especially encourage submissions on: Biocatalysis and the use of Directed Evolution in Synthetic Biology and BiotechnologyBiotechnological Production of New Bioactive Molecules, Biomaterials, Biopharmaceuticals, and BiofuelsNew Imaging Techniques and Biosensors, especially as applicable to Healthcare and Systems BiologyNew Biotechnological Approaches in Genomics, Proteomics and MetabolomicsMetabolic Engineering, Biomolecular Engineering and NanobiotechnologyManuscripts which report isolation, purification, immobilization or utilization of organisms or enzymes which are already well-described in the literature are not suitable for publication in EMT, unless their primary purpose is to report significant new findings or approaches which are of broad biotechnological importance. Similarly, manuscripts which report optimization studies on well-established processes are inappropriate. EMT does not accept papers dealing with mathematical modeling unless they report significant, new experimental data.

Journal of Catalysis

ISSN: 0021-9517
5 Year impact factor: 7
Impact factor: 6.5

The Journal of Catalysis publishes original, rigorous, and scholarly contributions in the fields of heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis including all forms of stimulations of chemical transformations (e.g., photon-, plasmon-, and electron-mediated catalysis). They are based on studies that relate catalytic function to fundamental chemical properties of surfaces and metal complexes. The contributions present novel concepts, the synthesis and kinetic investigations of inorganic solids and homogeneous complexes, spectroscopic methods for characterization of catalysts, studies of probes and reacting species interacting with the catalysts, as well as theoretical methods. The research should be of direct relevance to the science of catalytic processes and should deal with fundamental or application-driven catalysis. Published manuscripts will be of lasting value because of their significant contributions to our understanding and practice of catalysis.
