About the journal
Aims and scope
Emerging Contaminants is a leading platform for research addressing the potential ecological and human health risks associated with environmental contamination from emerging contaminants.
The journal publishes experimental or theoretical work that deepen scientific understanding of the nature, scope and impacts of emerging contaminants in the environment; technologies leveraging novel principles for reducing and controlling or mitigation of their emission and presence; as well as the development, implementation and efficacy of national and international policies aimed at protecting ecosystem and human health from these contaminants.
Current topics considered for publication in Emerging Contaminants include:
I. Environmental Occurrence and Behaviour
Methodology for identification of emerging contaminants by suspect or non-target analysis
Screening and prioritisation of emerging contaminants
Occurrence, fate, transport, and behavior of emerging contaminants in natural and engineered systems
Biogeochemical cycles of emerging contaminants
II. Ecological and Human Health Impacts
Toxicology and the underlying mechanisms of emerging contaminants at the cellular, organismal, community or ecosystem level
Exposure to, effects and risks of emerging contaminants
III. Treatment, Remediation, and Resource Recovery
Emission reduction of emerging contaminants from various sources
Degradation and treatment of emerging contaminants in multiple environment
Remediation of contaminated sites by emerging contaminants
Resources recovery and disposal of wastes containing emerging contaminants
IV. Risk Mitigation and Policy
Sustainable strategies for risk mitigation of emerging contaminants
National and international polices and management practices for emerging contaminants
Emerging contaminants are defined as synthetic or naturally occurring chemicals or biological agents that are not currently (or have been only recently) regulated and about which there exist concerns regarding their impact on ecosystem and/or human health. The risks associated with these contaminants are not fully understood at present.
Examples of emerging contaminants that are of current interest include:
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), such as flame retardants, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), UV filters, etc.
Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs)
Endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs)
Micro- and nano-plastics
Plastic additives, e.g. plasticisers
Food and feed additives
Disinfection by-products (DBPs)
Cyanotoxins
Nanoparticles
Mercury
Radionuclides and nuclear waste
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria or antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs)
Pathogenic bacteria, viruses
Liquid crystal monomers
Environmentally persistent free radicals
Organometallic compounds
Substances of unknown or variable compositions, complex reaction or degradation products
Editorial Board
Article types
Full-length/ Research Article
A complete report on original research and/or clinical studies
A structured abstract is required.
A clear structure is required, which should contain but not confined to the following sections:
Introduction
Material and methods
Results
Discussion
Conclusions
Authors' contribution (For details please visit the link.)
Ethic statement
COI
(acknowledgments/clarification)
Bibliography
Appendices (including multimedia components)
Review Article
A substantial overviews present a complete overview of the state of the art with a comprehensive bibliography, generally, also contains a table of contents. It should cover topics that have seen significant development or progress in recent years, with comprehensive depth and a balanced perspective. Review articles should NOT include unpublished material such as unpublished/original data, submitted manuscripts, or personal communication.
Mini Review
A succinct and clear summary that covers focused aspects of a current area of investigation and its recent developments, providing up-to-date developments, concepts, etc.
Editorial
Generally from the (guest) editor of the publication. Can be Foreword, Editorial, Guest Editorial, Preface, etc.
Short Communication
Short report or announcement of research, usually claiming certain results, which present original and significant material for rapid dissemination. Short Communications are expected to have a higher than average impact on the field rather than report on incremental research.
Perspective
An article presents a new and unique viewpoint on existing problems, fundamental concepts, or prevalent notions on a specific topic, propose and support a new hypothesis, or discuss the implications of a newly implemented innovation. Perspective pieces may focus on current advances and future directions on a topic and may include original data as well as personal opinion.
As a guideline, Perspective should not normally exceed 3,000 words. Perspectives allow up to 30 references; citations should be selective. Perspectives should include no more than 4 display items (figures, tables and/or boxes).
Case Study
An article that presents an in-depth examination of a real-world environmental instance, such as a specific site, intervention, technology deployment or policy application. It offers rich, contextual insights into complex environmental phenomena, decisions, and outcomes.
