Scope
Works published in the journal feature a balanced mix of fundamental, technology-oriented, experimental, computational, digital and data-driven original research, thus appealing to catalysis practitioners in both academic and industrial environments.
Original research articles published in the journal must demonstrate new catalytic discoveries and/or methodological advances that represent a significant advance on previously published work, from the molecular to the process scales. We welcome rigorous research in a wide range of timely or emerging applications related to the environment, health, energy and materials.
Catalysis Science & Technology publishes Communications, Articles, Reviews and Perspectives. More details regarding manuscript types may be found in the Information for Authors section.
Readership
Academic and industrial chemists of all disciplines using heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis: organic, organometallic, inorganic and bio(in)organic chemists; biochemists; physical and theoretical chemists; materials, polymer, surface, and environmental scientists.
Information for authors
Want to publish in this journal? Our author guidelines explain how to prepare and submit your article and provide useful information on the review and publication process including transfers, revisions and any article processing charges (APCs) that may apply.
