This Virtual Special Issue will feature groundbreaking engineering research addressing the issues of sustainable energy production and storage, as well as decarbonization. Submit your manuscript by September 30, 2023.
Chemical Engineers are collaborating with researchers across the chemical sciences to address the climate crisis, through finding sustainable energy solutions and developing energy sources that could decrease our annual greenhouse gas emissions.
To highlight cutting-edge research toward these most pressing challenges, ACS Engineering Au is launching a Virtual Special Issue on Sustainable Energy and Decarbonization. This Virtual Special Issue will feature groundbreaking engineering research addressing the issues of sustainable energy production and storage, as well as decarbonization.
We invite contributions of Articles, Letters, Reviews or Perspectives on all topics relating to sustainable energy and decarbonization, including (but not limited to):
- Decarbonization through CO2 capture, utilization and sequestration
- Decarbonization through hydrogen economy and electrification, including hydrogen carriers and energy material nexus
- Transitional pathways to renewable energy future
- Energy efficiency, economics and climate finance policies

Submission Information
We welcome submissions through September 30, 2023. All articles will be subject to initial assessment and thorough peer review, which will be handled by a Deputy or Associate Editor for the journal, to ensure they fit the scope of the Virtual Special Issue and meet the high scientific publishing standards of ACS Engineering Au. If your paper is accepted for inclusion in this Special Issue, your work will be highlighted as a significant contribution to this growing field of exploration. As ACS Engineering Au is a fully open access journal, your paper will be available to anyone, at anytime, anywhere in the world.
Accepted publications will go online as soon as possible after acceptance and be published in the next available issue. In late 2023, publications on this topic will be gathered into a virtual special issue on a dedicated webpage, and be promoted as a collection of special interest.
The editors welcome interested authors to submit pre-submission enquiries to Prof. Ranade to ensure the suitability of the work prior to submission.
Article Processing Charges apply for publication in this fully open access journal. The base APC is $2,000 with a CC BY-NC-ND license. Please see our website for more information on Open Access Pricing, our ACS Country Discount & Waiver Policy, and ACS Read + Publish agreements.
