Call for papers/Topics

Full Articles/ Reviews/ Shorts Papers/ Abstracts are welcomed in the following research fields:

1. Chemical Engineering

These topics form the bedrock of the discipline, focusing on how matter and energy are manipulated on a large scale.

Transport Phenomena: The study of momentum (fluid mechanics), heat, and mass transfer.
Chemical Thermodynamics: Phase equilibria, chemical reaction equilibria, and the laws governing energy conversion.
Reaction Engineering & Kinetics: Design and optimization of chemical reactors ($r = kC^n$) and understanding the rates of chemical reactions.
Separation Processes: Techniques to purify substances, including distillation, absorption, extraction, and membrane filtration.
Process Control & Dynamics: Using mathematical models and sensors to maintain stability and safety in automated industrial systems.

This area applies engineering principles to biological systems, bridging the gap between "lab bench" biology and industrial production.

Biochemical Engineering: Scaling up biological processes, such as fermentation for pharmaceuticals or biofuels.
Cellular & Molecular Engineering: Manipulation of cell pathways and genetic engineering to produce specific proteins or metabolites.
Biocatalysis: Using enzymes as industrial catalysts to perform highly specific chemical transformations.
Synthetic Biology: Designing and constructing new biological parts, devices, and systems for practical purposes.
Bioinformatics: Using computational tools to analyze large biological datasets, such as genomic sequences.

This branch focuses on protecting human health and the environment by managing waste and resources.

Water & Wastewater Treatment: Physical, chemical, and biological methods to purify water for consumption or safe discharge.
Air Quality Engineering: Control of particulate matter and gaseous pollutants (like $SO_x$ and $NO_x$) from industrial sources.
Solid & Hazardous Waste Management: The treatment, disposal, and recycling of industrial and municipal waste.
Environmental Remediation: Cleanup of contaminated soil and groundwater using techniques like bioremediation or soil vapor extraction.
Sustainability & Life Cycle Assessment (LCA): Quantifying the total environmental impact of a product from "cradle to grave."

These subtopics represent the areas where the three main branches overlap significantly.

Green Chemistry & Engineering: Designing chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances.
Biorefinery Systems: Integrating chemical and biological processes to convert biomass into fuels, power, and chemicals (a bridge between all three fields).
Waste-to-Energy (WtE): Using chemical or biological methods (like anaerobic digestion or gasification) to turn waste streams into energy.
Nanotechnology: Engineering materials at the molecular scale for targeted drug delivery (Bio/Chem) or high-efficiency water filters (Env/Chem).
Sustainable Energy Systems: Development of fuel cells, solar cells, and advanced batteries using chemical and material science principles.
Systems Biology & Ecology: Using mathematical modeling to understand complex interactions within a biological cell or an entire ecosystem.
