Chemical Engineering Journal

ISSN: 1385-8947

An International Journal of Research and Development.The Chemical Engineering Journal focuses upon seven aspects of Chemical Engineering: Applied Biomaterials and Biotechnologies, Catalysis, Chemical Reaction Engineering, Computational Chemical Engineering, Environmental Chemical Engineering, Green and Sustainable Science and Engineering, and Novel Materials.The Chemical Engineering Journal is an international research journal and invites contributions of original and novel fundamental research. The journal aims to provide an international forum for the presentation of original fundamental research, interpretative reviews and discussion of new developments in chemical engineering. Papers which describe novel theory and its application to practice are welcome, as are those which illustrate the transfer of techniques from other disciplines. Reports of carefully executed experimental work, which is soundly interpreted are also welcome. The overall focus is on original and rigorous research results that have generic significance.The Applied Biomaterials and Biotechnologies section of Chemical Engineering Journal will consider papers describing the development of new functional biomaterials, biomanufacturing strategies, and/or biotechnologies with demonstrated practical applications. Theoretical calculations can be included, but all papers considered must have an experimental component. In vivo proof-of-concept demonstrations are typically expected for new biomaterials-related papers, although advanced cell/tissue models for validation of new materials or processes may also be considered. Specific topics of interest within this section include:Biosensors for disease diagnosis (including new nanomaterials, materials interfaces, structured materials, or cell-based assays enabling sensing via electrochemical, optical, fluorescence, or other sensing mechanisms as demonstrated in a practical biological fluid), excluding the development of small molecule probesBiological imaging materials (including new materials for enhancing contrast in new or emerging diagnostic imaging strategies)Drug and gene delivery vehicles (including new particle, hydrogel, implant, microneedle, or other material technologies for delivering small molecule, protein, genetic, or other bioactives), excluding the development of small molecule therapeuticsNanomedi...

This includes fundamental studies on heat, mass and momentum transfer that occur during chemical or biological reactions. We particularly welcome innovative work that focuses on key areas of:- reactor engineering (e.g. novel reactor designs and materials, reactor safety and environmental issues)- and emerging reactor technologies, including but not limited to:membrane reactorschromatograp... reactorsunconvention... fluidized bed reactorsjoule-heated reactorsplasma reactorselectrochemi... reactors and devices (e.g. fuel cells, electrolysers) micro-reactors and microfluidic devices, including optical or electrochemical fluidic biosensing devicesphotoreactors... reactors. Please note significance and novelty of the work presented by the authors might fall in the interface with other sections of the journal and/or span across multiple current and emerging industrial and societal problems, such as (but not limited to) green energy storage and conversion, electrification of chemical reactors, hydrogen production, e-fuels, plastic waste upcycling, CO2 capture and conversion, nitrogen fixation, synthesis of functional materials, chemical looping, or microfluidics innovation. It is a peculiar feature of this section that submissions must have a significant focus on reaction engineering, including kinetics, transport phenomena, reactor/process analysis, design, and/or scale-up. Submissions that primarily address e.g. the functionality of materials without a focus on kinetics, transport, and process modelling and analysis; or computational modelling of processes; novel (bio)sensing devices without a component of reaction engineering; theoretical mathematics; combustion in the context of energy conversion; or straightforward bioengineering or biotechnological applications (bacteria or animal cells) will find a better fit in other sections and/or specialised journals.Within the Chemical Engineering Journal, the Computational Chemical Engineering section invites submissions considering innovative development and/or application of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), quantum mechanics (QM), molecular modeling and simulation (MMS), and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) that deal with any aspect of chemical and biological engineering. Computational research should be the primary focus, and experiments can supplement it. Also, note that aims and scopes from other sections about computational and theoretical works are abided in this section. Topics in this section include, but are not limited to, the following: 1) new AI/ML/computational algorithms/methods applicable to chemical and biological engineering, 2) new discovery of materials with clear understanding of molecular phenomena by AI or computational methods, 3) AI-guided development of chemical process and optimization, and 4) AI/ML/computational methods for critical energy saving and sustainable environment.Within the Chemical Engineering Journal, the Green and Sustainable Science and Engineering section presents papers focusing on innovative scientific and engineering solutions for the sustainable future of human beings and nature.

GSSE section does NOT focus on traditional fabrication and modification (processes) of polymers, including membranes and porous materials, metal alloys, and construction materials. Papers pertaining to chemistry with lack of "innovative" engineering aspects, combustion and engines should be submitted to more specialized journals. Otherwise, they will be internally transferred to other journals more suited to their topic.The Novel Materials for Energy and Advanced Applications section of Chemical Engineering Journal considers papers describing the development of new functional materials and/or materials processing strategies with demonstrated practical applications. Theoretical calculations can be included, but all papers considered must have an experimental component.

Chemical Physics

ISSN: 0301-0104

Frontier research on physical phenomena in chemistry, biology and materials scienceCriteria for publication in Chemical Physics are novelty, quality and general interest in experimental and theoretical chemical physics and physical chemistry. Articles are welcome that deal with problems of electronic and structural dynamics, reaction mechanisms, fundamental aspects of catalysis, solar energy conversion and chemical reactions in general, involving atoms, molecules, proteins, clusters, surfaces, interfaces and bulk matter. Reports on new methodologies and comprehensive assessments of existing ones, as well as applications to new types of problems are especially welcome. Experimental papers are expected to be brought into relation with theory, and theoretical papers should be connected to present or future experiments. Manuscripts that apply standard methods to specific physical-chemical problems and/or to specific systems are appropriate if they report novel results for an important problem of high interest and/or if they provide significant new insights.Manuscripts describing routine use or minor extensions or modifications of established and/or published experimental and theoretical methodologies are not appropriate for the journal. In addition, manuscripts describing analytical procedures that use established spectroscopic techniques, such as for sample characterization, will not be accepted for publication, even if they appear new or improved with respect to procedures previously used.In addition to regular research papers, Chemical Physics publishes invited perspectives articles (called ChemPhys Perspectives) and Special Thematic Issues. Each Chemical Physics Special Issue provides a snapshot of the leading edge in current research of a particular field in chemical physics, and contains invited articles by specialists in that field. The objective is to create a collection of articles representative of the newest findings in a field and equivalent to that covered at a topical conference.
