About the Journal
International Journal of Green Chemistry
International Journal of Green Chemistry [2582-5925 (e)]Â is a peer-reviewed hybrid open-access journal launched in 2015 that aims to recent advancements in green chemistry and related environmental science is published under this journal. Journal covers a niche segment of technology dealing with remediation, phytoremediation, phytostabilization, and environmental engineering science. Journal is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes good quality original and review papers.
Focus & Scope
- Sustainable synthetic routes: environmentally improved synthetic methods, solvent-free and benign-solvent reactions, atom economy and waste minimisation, microwave- and ultrasound-assisted synthesis, and process route selection and optimisation.
- Green catalysis: heterogeneous and recyclable catalysts, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, biocatalysis and enzymatic transformations, and catalyst design for reduced energy and reagent demand.
- Renewable feedstocks and biomass valorisation: lignocellulosic conversion, hemicellulose and lignin-derived chemicals, bio-based and biodegradable polymers, polyhydroxyalkanoates, waste-derived feedstocks, and substitution of fossil-based raw materials.
- Alternative fuels and chemical aspects of renewable energy: biodiesel production and fuel properties, biomass pretreatment and thermochemical and biochemical conversion, hydrogen production, COâ‚‚ capture and utilisation, and chemistry of energy storage systems.
- Green materials chemistry: green synthesis of nanomaterials, graphene and carbon materials, metal-organic frameworks and zeolites, ion-exchange and adsorbent materials, and biocomposites.
- Environmental analytical chemistry: environmental monitoring methods, biosensors and immunoassays, spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, speciation analysis, stable-isotope tracers, and compound-specific isotope analysis.
- Pollutant behaviour and fate: occurrence, mobility, and transformation of organic, inorganic, and radioactive pollutants, adsorption and desorption processes, persistent organic pollutants, microplastics, heavy metals, and pharmaceutical residues in environmental compartments.
- Interfacial and multimedia processes: partitioning across soil, sediment, water, air, and biota, air–surface exchange, transport in porous media, bioaccumulation and food-chain transfer, and multimedia fate modelling.
- Remediation and treatment technologies: bioremediation and bioaugmentation, phytoremediation and phytostabilisation, electro-remediation, adsorption and membrane processes including nanofiltration and reverse osmosis, wastewater and leachate treatment, and contaminant removal from soil and groundwater.
- Environmental assessment and modelling: life cycle assessment, ecological footprint analysis, strategic environmental assessment, risk assessment, environmental accounting, and simulation and sensitivity analysis of environmental systems.
- Cleaner production and industrial implementation: process intensification for reduced emissions, cleaner production practices, industrial scale-up of green processes, circular-economy approaches in chemical manufacturing, and techno-economic evaluation of sustainable alternatives.
