AIMS AND SCOPE
This journal publishes refereed, original work in all branches of Chemistry, Chemistry Education, and Chemical Engineering. This includes, but not limited to: Materials and advance materials, Electrochemistry and applications, Homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, Renewable and sustainable energy, Environmental chemistry and its aspects, Organic synthesis for food and drug, Reaction engineering and quality control, Computational modeling and chemometric, Chemical engineering and process, and Chemical Education and society.
Contributions may take the form of a paper, a critical review, a short communication, a rapid communication, a technical note or comments on papers already published. A paper is a comprehensive contribution to the subject, including introduction, experimental information and discussion of results. (Technical accounts involving application of well-known techniques, and situation assessment/observation/sampling papers reporting results of work not carried out as a research activity, cannot be considered.) A review is an authoritative, critical account of recent and current research in a specific field to which the author has made notable contributions. A short communication is a concise account of new and significant findings to inform readers of preliminary or limited research results. A rapid communication is an original contribution which merits prompt publication to publicise the findings of very recent research with immediate significance. A technical note describes an original process or technique without necessarily including extensive data, theory or critical evaluation. Comments on papers already published are sent to the authors of the paper for reply and both the comments and the authors’ reply will be published in the upcoming issue of Water SA. Preference is given to concise contributions.
Peer review
Manuscripts will be submitted to and assessed by peer reviewers. A double-blind review system is used. The names of the authors are included in the manuscript sent for peer review but the names of the reviewers are not included on the review reports sent to authors. The evaluation of any manuscript is undertaken with the understanding that neither the substance of the article nor the figures or tables has been published or will be submitted for publication elsewhere during the period of review. Authors bear sole responsibility for the factual accuracy of their publications.
Authorship
Contributors to the paper identified as authors must meet both of the following criteria (those not meeting all criteria should merely be acknowledged): (i) substantial contribution to the conception or design of the study, or the collection, analysis or interpretation of data; (ii) writing or critically revising the paper.
All authors are accountable for all aspects of the published work, and must approve the versions of the paper submitted for review and final publication
Plagiarism
Plagiarism is the use of another's words or ideas without acknowledging the original source, and in so doing representing them as one's own original work. Failure to correctly cite direct quotations or paraphrases of other published work (including one's own) is categorised as plagiarism, and unsuited to publication in Water SA. The editors make use of iThenticate plagiarism detection software to assess similarity of submitted content with other publications, and submitted papers may be withdrawn from consideration for publication if any plagiarised content is found.
Corrections and retractions
Once published, papers become part of the permanent scholarly record – changes to papers after publication are only permitted under exceptional circumstances and at the discretion of the Editor. Changes to correct errors introduced by the journal or the authors will be published as Errata or Corrigenda, respectively, which will be added on the last page of the republished article. In cases of fraudulent, invalid or plagiarised results, papers may be retracted (original article is still accessible but with notice of retraction attached) or removed (only the article metadata and a notice of removal are still accessible).
SUBMITTING A MANUSCRIPT
Manuscripts, in English only, must be submitted in MS Word and strictly followe the formate by Chempublish Journal Website (Registered needed).
Each submission must be accompanied by a covering letter/e-mail, stating the name(s) and title(s) and contact details (e-mail) of each author, and giving a brief description of the paper indicating the originality and significance/ contribution of the work reported. The e-mail address used to submit the paper will be used for all correspondence about the paper.
In addition, if possible the covering letter may list the names, affiliations and contact details (e-mail) of at least four reviewers who are qualified to review the manuscript. Suggested reviewers should not have contributed to the manuscript or the research reported therein, and should not currently have a close association with any of the authors. The Editor is under no obligation to approach the suggested individuals to act as reviewers, and other reviewers may still be used.
The submission of a paper will be taken to indicate that it has not been, and will not be, submitted for publication elsewhere during the period of review, and that all of the authors have agreed to the submission (all authors should be copied on the submission e-mail).

Methods: Ethical clearance
If the research reported on in the manuscript was conducted on vertebrates (human or non-human) then details must be provided on the necessary ethical considerations applied and the approval of the study by the relevant institutional ethics committee (name and any applicable reference number to be stated in the Methods section).
Acknowledgements

Proficiency in English or Bahasa
Authors who are unsure of correct English or Bahasa usage should consult a language editor or someone known to be proficient in scientific English for proofreading or editing assistance before submitting their manuscript for review. Manuscripts in which the language use makes the content difficult to follow or which will require extensive language editing may be rejected on this basis.
FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS
Chempublish Jornal uses English and Bahasa and at the point of submission the choice of font, font size, and line spacing is at the authors’ discretion.
Units
The International System of Units (SI) applies. Technical and familiar abbreviations may be used, but must be defined if any doubt exists. A space should be used between the last digit and the unit of measure, except for % and ° (e.g., 10% and 5°C, but 13 MW). Chempublish Journal uses the symbol 'L' for litres.
Variables and equations
All variables should appear in italics. Variables which can be created in MS Word should be inserted in the text in this format, and not using equation-building software. All equations should be numbered sequentially in Arabic numerals.
