Environmental Science: Nano

Environmental Science: Nano is a comprehensive, high-impact journal focused on nanoscale materials and processes in the environment.

ISSN: 2051-8161

Scope

The scope encompasses beneficial uses and adverse impacts of engineered, natural and incidental nanomaterials in air, water, soil and environmentally-relevant systems.

This includes, but is not limited to, the following topic areas:

• Innovative nanoscale applications for water, air, soil, food, climate, and energy sustainability
• Safe and sustainable by design principles including rational nanomaterial design, life cycle assessment, risk/benefit analyses
• Environmentally relevant nanomaterial interactions with biological systems and nanotoxicology
• Environmental fate, reactivity, and transformations of nanoscale materials, including nanoplastics and ultrafine atmospheric particles
• Analytical methods for characterisation of nanoscale processes and materials
• Development and testing of nanoscale sensors for environmental deployment

Submissions are initially assessed by the Editorial Office and handled through peer-review by our high-profile associate editors.

Readership

Environmental Science: Nano is essential reading for academic, industrial and government researchers, engineers, manufacturers and legislators interested in the effects and consequences of nanotechnologies on environmental and human health.

All articles published in Environmental Science: Nano will benefit from wide exposure. Furthermore, all content published during 2014 and 2015 is free to access upon registration.
