About Journal
Aim and scope: Environmental Engineering and Sustainable Development Journal serves as a platform for researchers to exchange knowledge. This journal accepts articles in the fields of environmental engineering and sustainable development. The articles are expertly reviewed and judged by several different referees. Then the opinions of the reviewers are evaluated by the editorial board and if accepted, the article is published.
Peer-Review Policy: The peer review process in the Environmental Engineering and Sustainable Development journal is double-blinded in which the reviewer’s name is unknown to the author and vice versa. Submitted articles go through a structural and subject evaluation to align with Environmental Engineering and Sustainable Development journal principles. Matches go through a double-blind peer review by three field experts (non-editorial staff) chosen by the Board based on specialty. The Board makes the final article selection.
