Open access publisher Hindawi has announced the acceptance of International Journal of Chemical Engineering into the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), an index of more than 8,500 notable and significant journals from Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science. The addition of the journal to SCIE means that published work will now be more discoverable to a wider audience as well as providing extra recognition for authors, editors, and reviewers. It also means that the journal will receive its first Impact Factor when Clarivate Analytics release their 2019 Journal Citation Report.
The acceptance of this journal could not have happened without the great effort and support of the 29 Editorial Board Members and a wonderful letter of recommendation from the new Chief Editor, Evangelos Tsotsas. The Editorial Board Members are a global group of chemical engineers, and of special mention are Jose C. Merchuk from Ben-Gurion University of the Negrev, Donald L. Feke from Case Western Reserve University and Iftekhar A. Karimi from the National University of Singapore, who have each handled over 50 manuscripts for the journal. Of the Editorial Board, 20 have served for at least three years.
The journal also owes a lot to the academic community who have written and reviewed many incredible articles for the journal since its first article in 2008. This includes Novel Production Method for Plant Polyphenol from Livestock Excrement Using Subcritical Water Reaction by Mayu Yamamoto et al featuring a simple and efficient method to produce products such as vanillin, protocatechuic acid, vanillic acid and syringic acid; as well as the review article Chemical Pretreatment Methods for the Production of Cellulosic Ethanol: Technologies and Innovations, by Edem Cudjoe Bensah and Moses Mensah, which evaluates the current state-of-the-art in efficient and simple methods of pretreatment for the production of cellulosic ethanol.
