  • Impact factor: 5.3
An International Journal on Physics, Chemistry, Geology and Technology of Clays and Clay MineralsApplied Clay Science is an international journal attracting high-quality, novel scientific papers on clays and clay minerals, including research papers, reviews, and technical notes. The journal covers typical subjects of Fundamental and Applied Clay Science such as:• Synthesis and purification • Structural, crystallographic and mineralogical properties of clays and clay minerals • Thermal properties of clays and clay minerals • Physico-chemical properties including i) surface and interface properties; ii) thermodynamic properties; iii) mechanical properties • Interaction with water, with polar and apolar molecules • Colloidal properties and rheology • Modelling and simulation, but with an experimental application. Purely theoretical simulation studies are only acceptable when they deal with scientific issues that cannot be solved experimentally • Genesis and deposits of clay minerals • Geology and geochemistry of clays • Modification of clays and clay minerals properties by thermal and physical treatments • Modification by chemical treatments with organic and inorganic molecules (organoclays, pillared clays) • Modification by biological microorganisms • Structural and textural modifications of clay minerals • Synthesis of other materials (such as zeolites, and geopolymers) starting from clay minerals. • Novel materials based on clay minerals such as clay polymer (bio)nanocomposites • Clays and clay minerals in formulations of pesticides and drugs and in animal food production • Environmental applications such as Radioactive Waste Disposal, Water Engineering, Depollution of heavy metals, Filtration • Fillers and coating (paint, rubber, plastics) • Drilling fluids and drilling muds in petroleum industry • Foundry moulding • Applications in soil chemistry and in agriculture • Applications of clay mineral in hydrocarbon and geothermal prospection • Geotechnical applications of clays and clay minerals • Applications in ceramics, construction, iron ore and steel industry, paper, catalysis, cosmetics • Related lamellar materials such as Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH), layered oxides, layered silicates, Cement Silicate Hydrates (CSH, CASH, NASH), serpentine, and mica.In all the applications mentioned above, the focus of the manuscript should be on the clay.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Hydrometallurgy

  • ISSN: 0304-386X
  • 5 Year impact factor: 4.8
  • Impact factor: 4.8
An International Journal devoted to all aspects of the Aqueous Processing of MetalsHydrometallurgy aims to compile studies on novel processes, process design, chemistry, modelling, control, economics and interfaces between unit operations, and to provide a forum for discussions on case histories and operational difficulties.Topics covered include: leaching of metal values by chemical reagents or bacterial action at ambient or elevated pressures and temperatures; separation of solids from leach liquors; removal of impurities and recovery of metal values by precipitation, ion exchange, solvent extraction, gaseous reduction, cementation, electro-winning and electro-refining; pre-treatment of ores by roasting or chemical treatments such as halogenation or reduction; recycling of reagents and treatment of effluents.

Journal of Geochemical Exploration

  • ISSN: 0375-6742
  • 5 Year impact factor: 3.4
  • Impact factor: 3.4
Journal for Environmental and Economic GeochemistryJournal of Geochemical Exploration is mostly dedicated to publication of original studies in exploration and environmental geochemistry and related topics.Contributions considered of prevalent interest for the journal include researches based on the application of innovative methods to:define the genesis and the evolution of mineral deposits including transfer of elements in large-scale mineralized areas.analyze complex systems at the boundaries between bio-geochemistry, metal transport and mineral accumulation.evaluate effects of historical mining activities on the surface environment.trace pollutant sources and define their fate and transport models in the near-surface and surface environments involving solid, fluid and aerial matrices.assess and quantify natural and technogenic radioactivity in the environment.determine geochemical anomalies and set baseline reference values using compositional data analysis, multivariate statistics and geo-spatial analysis.assess the impacts of anthropogenic contamination on ecosystems and human health at local and regional scale to prioritize and classify risks through deterministic and stochastic approaches.Papers dedicated to the presentation of newly developed methods in analytical geochemistry to be applied in the field or in laboratory are also within the topics of interest for the journal.Submission of studies presenting results related with global and continental-wide geochemical prospecting activities and review articles covering topics of interest for a broad international audience is also encouraged specially when accompanied by cartographic products.To ensure high quality of both the peer review process and the published papers, associate editors are assigned to individual submissions in accordance with their own expertise.
