International Journal of Science and Technology of Powder and Particulate MaterialsThe aim of Advanced Powder Technology is to meet the demand for aninternational journal that integrates all aspects of science and technologyresearch on powder and particulate materials. The journal fulfills this purpose bypublishing original research papers, rapid communications, reviews, andtranslated articles by prominent researchers worldwide.Advanced Powder Technology covers various areas, but a discussion ofpowder technology and particulate science is highly required in articles.The discussion should relate to new powder and particulate materials, noveltechniques, and innovative processes, especially those having potential practicalimplications, and should bring new understanding of powder technology.Topics include:Dynamics and phenomena of powderPowder and particle characterizationProduction of powder and particulate materials in gases and liquids(nanoparticles, fine ceramics, pharmaceuticals, particle modification,novel functional materials, etc.)Powder handling and operations (comminution, storage, transport,granulation, separation, fluidization, etc.)Aerosol and colloidal processingMeasurement and control of powder processesNumerical simulation method (CFD, DEM, Monte Carlo method,population balance, etc.)The editorial work of Advanced Powder Technology, which was founded as the International Journal of the Society of Powder Technology, Japan, is now shared by distinguished board members, who operate in a unique framework designed to respond to the increasing global demand for articles on not only powder and particles, but also on various materials produced from them.
Heat, Power and ProcessA sister journal of Progress in Energy and Combustion ScienceApplications in Energy and Combustion Science provides a forum for information on research, development, and innovation in areas relevant to applications using combustion and other forms of chemical energy conversion. The journal targets contributions to the generalizable understanding that can be gained from studies of applications and devices, and articulations of the transition of fundamental understanding to design, improvement, and integration of actual applications and devices.Applications in Energy and Combustion Science is also concerned with relevant fuels research, unconventional chemical energy conversion systems, aftertreatment, system and life-cycle analysis, and aspects of energy policy. Authors are specifically encouraged to submit manuscripts bridging the gaps between fundamental research and application while addressing these topics.The journal publishes short communications, full length original research articles, and review articles. The review articles are by invitation of the editors only. All articles are Gold Open Access, which ensures easy and free access worldwide and especially also for interested parties from the commercial sector.
An International Journal Devoted to Catalytic Science and its ApplicationsApplied Catalysis A: General publishes original papers and reviews on all aspects of catalysis of basic and practical interest to chemical scientists in both industrial and academic fields. Papers that focus on advances in catalysis science, especially those that have potential practical implications, by exploring new concepts or new approaches to catalytic processes and materials resulting in new understanding of catalytic phenomena are most welcome.Papers that do not focus on catalytic phenomena and those that report results of a thorough study or optimization of systems or processes that are well understood, widely studied, or minor variations of known ones are strongly discouraged. In their submission, authors are required to include a "Justification for Publication" section comprising a statement detailing the fit of the manuscript to the scope of the journal. Submissions made without the inclusion of such a justification will be rejected without review.When preparing an article for submission, it is important that the authors describe their work succinctly in the context of any related published work emphasizing the novel contributions made. Simply reporting new catalyst compositions without delivering associated new insights in catalytic science will be insufficient for publication.
