About the Journal
International Journal of Advance in Molecular Engineering
International Journal of Advance in Molecular Engineering: is a peer-reviewed Online journal launched in 2023 that is dedicated to publishing only good quality research works; it accepts both original research articles and review papers. Both experimental and theoretical papers falling under the scope of the journal are welcome.
Focus & Scope
- Molecular design and simulation: molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo methods, quantum chemical calculations, coarse-grained and multiscale modelling, force field development, machine learning for molecular property prediction, and computational screening of candidate molecules.
- Molecular machines and nanoscale devices: synthetic molecular motors and switches, self-assembly and supramolecular architectures, molecular recognition and host–guest systems, molecular electronics, and tools for molecular manipulation and fabrication.
- Protein and biomolecular engineering: directed evolution and rational protein design, enzyme engineering for stability and selectivity, protein folding and structure prediction, biomolecular interactions and binding thermodynamics, and biomolecular spectroscopy, crystallography, and NMR characterisation.
- Metabolic and synthetic biology: pathway design and flux optimisation, genetic circuit construction, host strain engineering, cell-free systems, and systems-level modelling of engineered organisms.
- Biocatalysis and catalytic engineering: enzyme immobilisation and reuse, whole-cell biotransformations, molecular-level design of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, active-site engineering, and catalyst performance in industrial chemical, energy, and pharmaceutical applications.
- Molecular and interfacial materials: functional polymers and biomaterials, molecularly imprinted materials, membranes with engineered selectivity, thin films and coatings, surface functionalisation, and structure–property relationships in engineered materials.
- Microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip systems: microreactor design and scale-out, droplet and continuous-flow platforms, on-chip synthesis and analysis, fluid dynamics at the microscale, and microfluidic drug delivery and diagnostic devices.
- Molecular separations: membrane processes including reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, and pervaporation, adsorption and ion exchange with engineered selectivity, chromatographic separations, extraction and crystallisation, and molecular-level transport and selectivity mechanisms.
- Reaction engineering and process intensification: reaction kinetics and mechanism, multiphase and unsteady-state reactors, coupled heat, mass, and momentum transfer, reactor simulation and optimisation, and emerging reactor technologies.
- Electrochemical and energy systems: electrochemical cell design and kinetics, electrode structures and current efficiency, impedance analysis, molecular approaches to energy storage and conversion, hydrogen and biofuel production, and COâ‚‚ capture and utilisation.
- Environmental molecular engineering: advanced oxidation processes, adsorption and degradation of contaminants, resource and nutrient recovery, environmental nanotechnology, and detection and remediation of micro- and nanoplastics.
