Timelines
Submission Deadline: extended to June 30th 2024
Instructions for Authors
The sections below outline the submission instructions for authors. For any questions, please contact Dr. Fabio Santos at fabio.p.santos@springernature.com (this opens in a new tab).
Each manuscript goes through the normal high standard peer-review process and, upon acceptance, the papers are published online immediately after production. Then, all papers are organized under a special Topical Collection web page (this opens in a new tab).
Preparing your Manuscript
For first (initial) submissions, we require:
- a single file containing your manuscript (Word or PDF); or
- the LaTeX package of files, which will be compiled at submission. For LaTeX submissions we encourage authors to use the Springer Nature LaTeX template (this opens in a new tab), although other templates are acceptable too.
For revised submissions we strongly recommend to upload the editable source files (either Word or LaTeX) together with a PDF of the revised (LaTeX) manuscript for reference. We can process a PDF-only submission, but upon acceptance source files are mandatory and providing source files after acceptance may delay production.
To ensure a smooth submission process, please include a Declarations section at the end of your manuscript, as described here (this opens in a new tab).
Please also refer to the journal’s submission guidelines (this opens in a new tab) and contact the journal if you have any questions.
Submission
To access the submission portal, please visit the main journal web page (this opens in a new tab) and click at “Submit manuscript”. To indicate a submission to this collection, follow the instructions to access the portal, and once you reach the “Details” tab, please select the collection title from the Collection drop-down list:
Publishing Options
We offer two routes for publishing your manuscripts:
“Traditional” subscription model
Papers are published online without any costs to authors, and can be accessed, for example, through an institutional subscription. In addition, we encourage authors to use SharedIT (this opens in a new tab) to be able to share, easily and legally, a view-only full-text version of the published article with colleagues and general audiences.
Open Access model
The papers are published online and are immediately available for anyone to access for free. Depending on the corresponding author's affiliation, you might be eligible to publish OA at no costs to you as an author. This is because Adsorption authors benefits from Springer Nature’s Transformative Agreements, so that authors from a variety of countries and institutes are eligible to publish OA at no costs. Please learn more about this option under the Transformative Agreement section of this web page (this opens in a new tab). If you are not eligible through a Transformative Agreement, you can still publish OA through the payment of an Article Processing Charge (APC) - see fees and funding (this opens in a new tab) for more details.
Post-acceptance
Accepted papers will be typeset according to the usual format for the journal, and given a unique DOI number. Further information is provided in the relevant section of the submission guidelines (this opens in a new tab). After acceptance, there is an average 2-3 weeks for typesetting and proofs before final publication. Papers will be continuously published in the collection web page (this opens in a new tab) as soon as ready, thus the web page will be slowly populated with papers as soon as they appear online.
