PEER REVIEW

Journal of Water Chemistry and Technology is a peer reviewed journal. We use a single blind peer review format. Our team of reviewers includes 80 experts, both internal and external (67,5%). The average period from submission to first decision in 2019 was 60 days, and that from first decision to acceptance was 90 days. The rejection rate for submitted manuscripts in 2019 was 20%.
