The Journal of Hazardous Materials publishes full length research papers, reviews, case studies and short communications which
improve our understanding of the hazards and risks certain materials pose to people and the environment or deal with ways of controlling
these hazards and associated risks. The Editors particularly welcome proposals for review articles. To limit the scope the following
areas are excluded: work place health & safety and non-hazardous materials waste.
The Journal publishes high-impact contributions
on:
Characterization of the harmful effects of hazardous materials
Impact assessment methods and models - acute
and chronic effects of hazardous chemical releases
Risk assessment and management
Pollution control processes
Inherently safer and cleaner technologies
Treatment and disposal of solid, liquid and gaseous hazardous waste
Remediation
of contaminated soil and groundwater
The Journal publishes papers with significant novelty and scientific impact. The
Editors reserve the right to decline, without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria, including papers that:
Are
very similar to previous publications, with changed target substrates, employed materials, analyzed sites or experimental methods,
Deal with parameter optimization of known processes without new concepts and/or interpretations,
Report the environmental
analysis and monitoring of specific geographic areas without presenting new insights and/or hypothesis testing, or
Do not focus
on the environmental relevance and significance of the studied systems or materials.
