SEPARATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

This international journal publishes timely research on preparative separation processes and theoretical contributions to the field of separation science. We welcome papers on the following topics with applications across environmental sustainability, energy production, water treatment, and biotechnology:

• adsorption/absorption

• bioseparations

• centrifugation

• crystallization

• distillation

• electrically/magnetically driven separations

• flocculation

• extraction

• membrane processes

• precipitation

• reactive separations


The journal is also interested in publishing papers on continuous separations, hybrid processes, and carbon capture.

Numerical studies must highlight the broad applicability of the results beyond the system studied.

The journal does not publish analytical separation papers unless they contain new fundamental contributions to the field of separation science. Separation requires a selective transfer (i.e. transferring one substance while rejecting another). Simply describing the transferring of one substance from phase A to phase B is not a separation. If selectivity is not demonstrated (or has already been demonstrated) the paper will not be considered for publication.
