Bioresource Technology

ISSN: 0960-8524
5 Year impact factor: 9.4
Impact factor: 9.7

Bioresource Technology publishes original articles, review articles, case studies and short communications on the fundamentals, applications and management of bioresource technology.The journal's aim is to advance and disseminate knowledge in all the related areas of biomass, biological waste treatment, bioenergy, biotransformations and bioresource systems analysis, and technologies associated with conversion or production.Topics include:• Biofuels: liquid and gaseous biofuels production, modeling and economics • Bioprocesses and bioproducts: biocatalysis and fermentations • Biomass and feedstocks utilization: bioconversion of agro-industrial residues • Environmental protection: biological waste treatment • Thermochemical conversion of biomass: combustion, pyrolysis, gasification, catalysisFor more details, authors should consult the Subject Classifications in the Guide for Authors.The journal does not consider articles dealing with crop cultivation, breeding and agronomy, plant extracts and enzymes, composites, marine organisms (except microorganisms and algae for bioprocesses), soil and air pollution, and performance of fuel combustion in engines. Bioresource Technology does not consider part papers. Submissions focusing on the fundamentals, applications and management of bioresource technology can be submitted to the online-only, rapid-publication journal Bioresource Technology Reports.This journal welcomes contributions that support and advance the UN's sustainable development goals, in particular SDG 7 (Affordable and clean energy)

Process Biochemistry

ISSN: 1359-5113
5 Year impact factor: 3.9
Impact factor: 3.7

Process Biochemistry is an application-orientat... research journal devoted to reporting advances with originality and novelty, in the science and technology of the processes involving bioactive molecules and living organisms. These processes concern the production of useful metabolites or materials, or the removal of toxic compounds using tools and methods of current biology and engineering. Its main areas of interest include novel bioprocesses and enabling technologies (such as nanobiotechnology, tissue engineering, directed evolution, metabolic engineering, systems biology, and synthetic biology) applicable in food (nutraceutical), healthcare (medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic), energy (biofuels), environmental, and biorefinery industries and their underlying biological and engineering principles.Main topics covered include, with most of possible aspects and domains of application: • Fermentation, biochemical and bioreactor engineering • Biotechnology processes and their life science aspects • Biocatalysis, enzyme engineering and biotransformation • Downstream processing • Modeling, optimization and control techniques.Particula... aspects related to the processes, raw materials and products, also include: • Quantitative microbial physiology, stress response, signal transduction • Genetic engineering and metabolic engineering • Proteomics, functional genomics, metabolomics, and bioinformatics • Chiral compounds production, cell free protein system, high-throughput screening, in-vivo/in-vitro evolution, enzyme immobilization, enzyme reaction in non-aqueous media • Mass transfer, mixing, scale-up and scale-down, bioprocess monitoring, bio-manufacturing • Cell, tissue and antibody engineering: animal and plant cells/tissues, algae, micro-algae, extremophile, antibody screening and production • Environmental biotechnology: biodegradation, bioremediation, wastewater treatment, biosorption and bioaccumulation • Bio-commodity engineering: biomass, bio-refinery, bio-energy • Bioseparation, purification, protein refolding. • Other new bioprocess and bioreactor related topics especially on application to healthcare sectors

Science of the Total Environment

ISSN: 0048-9697
5 Year impact factor: 8.6
Impact factor: 8.2

An International Journal for Scientific Research into the Environment and its Relationship with HumankindScience of the Total Environment is an international multi-disciplinary natural science journal for publication of novel, hypothesis-driven and high-impact research on the total environment, which interfaces the atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and anthroposphere.STOTE... Aims & Scope has been updated - we invite contributions of original and high quality interdisciplinary environmental research papers of broad impact. Studies significantly advancing fundamental understanding and that focus on the interconnection of multiple spheres will be given primary consideration. Field studies have preference, while papers describing laboratory experiments must demonstrate significant advances in methodology or mechanistic understanding with a clear connection to the environment. Descriptive, repetitive, incremental or regional-scale studies with limited novelty will not be considered.1) Subject areas may include, but are not limited to: Air quality, atmospheric conditions, and new understanding of their role in adverse health or environmental outcomes Atmospheric biogeochemistry Ecosystem services and life cycle assessment Ecotoxicology and risk assessment Eco-hydrology Wildlife and contaminants Environmental impacts of climate change, agriculture, forestry, and land uses Environmental impacts of waste or wastewater treatment Drinking water contaminants and health implications Environmental remediation of soil and groundwater Global change-induced extreme events and environmental impacts Groundwater hydrogeochemistry and modeling Nanomaterials, microplastics, and other emerging contaminants Novel contaminant (bio)monitoring and risk assessment approaches Use of remote sensing and big data applications in better understanding complex environmentsStress ecology in marine, freshwater, and terrestrial ecosystems Trace metals and organics in biogeochemical cycles Water quality and securityCritical reviews or Discussion on current or emerging topicsFast-track submissions reporting ground-breaking discoveries with immediate impact2) Types of submissions not to be considered: Papers not contributing significant new knowledge to the field of studyTreatment/techn... studies that do not demonstrate direct environmental effects or benefits Disciplinary studies with limited environmental relevance Local or regional scale case studies lacking international relevance Soil or plant science studies without environmental implications Laboratory batch experiments without an application component, e.g., batch sorption experiments, preparation, and evaluation of sorbents or catalysts for contaminant removal, or controlled laboratory experiments not using environmentally relevant concentrations Manuscripts that are primarily data reports without a substantial hypothesis, e.g., monitoring of common contaminants Modelling studies without calibration and data validation Papers of social science in nature on economics, sociology, psychology, political science, policy, planning and/or managementPapers describing toxicological studies with narrow/specific objectives that do not have a clear environmental science connectionToxicology and ecotoxicology studies testing single chemicals in bench-scale assays Human health studies that do not provide significant additional understanding of pollution induced health outcomes Papers covering exposures, health effects, and control measures in occupational settings Method development papers on common contaminants Bibliometric analysis-based papers Papers that describe data analysis methods including machine learning that do not provide new scientific insights into the system from which the data were collectedDevelopment and/or implementation of renewable energy (e.g., wind, solar) that do not directly affect an environmental system. Please DO NOT ask the Editors-in-Chief for permission before submitting a manuscript. Kindly check the guidelines to determine whether your manuscript is within the scope of the journal; if yes, please go ahead and submit it.
