Aims and Scope

Journal of Catalyst and Reaction Engineering (JCRE) publishes refereed, original research papers on all aspects of technology of catalyst and engineering of reaction with catalysts in worldwide. A broad outline of the journal's scope includes:

  • The journal welcomes research articles at the all aspects of catalysis of basic and practical interest to chemical scientists in both industrial and academic fields
  • Production and use of catalysts in branches of industry: chemical, petrochemical, oil-refining, pharmaceutical, organic synthesis, fuel-energetic industries, environment protection, biocatalysis; technology of industrial catalytic processes; technology of catalysts production, raw materials and equipment; control of catalysts quality; starting, reduction, passivation, discharge, storage of catalysts; catalytic reactors.
  • Research, studies, and concepts : search for and development of new catalysts and new types of supports, formation of active components, and mechanochemistry in catalysis; comprehensive studies of work-out catalysts and analysis of deactivation mechanisms; studies of the catalytic process at different scale levels (laboratory, pilot plant, industrial); kinetics of industrial and newly developed catalytic processes and development of kinetic models; nonlinear dynamics and nonlinear phenomena in catalysis: multiplicity of stationary states, stepwise changes in regimes, etc.
  • The journal particularly welcomes research articles at the interface between chemistry, physics, materials science, and chemical engineering, and those concerning the translation of catalysis research from the atomic to the industrial scale.
