Objectives
Due to the galloping growth of the desalination field to help
supply water to an exploding active thirsty population, there
has been a surge in the number of scientists and engineers involved
in water desalting and wastewater reclamation.
Following this growth, there has been a flood of papers from
scientists and engineers, academia, government and industry
from all regions of the world recording results of work in the
lab or from operation of plants flowing into the editorial office
from about 100 countries.
This information needs to be disseminated promptly and widely
to the expanding desalination and water community as it is constantly
advancing and changing. It is often presented at conferences
attended by few. Peerreviewed papers are conveyed through the
journal. There is a need to extend the coverage to accommodate
additional selected papers promptly. We are ready to meet this
challenge with this new publication.
Desalination and
Water Treatment
The new journal will be dedicated to research and application
of desalination technology, environment and energy considerations,
integrated water management, water reuse, wastewater and related
topics.We are turning to main players in the field to support
the venture by participating in the publication and subscribing
to the new journal at an attractive price.
Impact Factor
We have been working closely with Thomson Scientific to expedite
evaluation of the new journal for the Web of Science
and expect it will be completed shortly. We are confident that
the evaluation will be positive so that the Desalination
and Water Treatment journal will be included in the Web
of Science and Current Contents and it will soon
get an impact factor.
Editorial Board
A distinguished worldwide editorial board and associate editors
will guide, monitor and review the journal.
For editorial matters, contact: dwt@deswater.com.
Peer Review
All papers are peer reviewed by at least two referees. Papers
presented at conferences are peer reviewed and selected with
the same standards as individually submitted papers. They therefore
have the same archival value.
Copyright
Copyright will be retained by authors who may place their papers
on their personal or institutional websites (Harvard System).
An electronic copy of the final paper will be provided to authors
for such use.
Electronic Submission
Manuscripts will be submitted electronically using an online
manuscript submission and peer review system.
Online Desalination Directory (www.desline.com)
The Desalination Directory plays a central role in networking
the desalination community and all those interested in the field.
The Directory includes geographical and subject indexes,
a cumulative index of Desalination, a calendar of events,
information about courses and other timely material. Desalination
and Water Treatment will be included in the Directory.
There are currently 25,000 entries of which 20,000 are individual
owners, suppliers, users, academic, government, and industrial
researchers, engineers, operators, managers, sales representatives
and consultants, and 4,800 are Institutions, companies and associations.
Abstracting and Indexing
Desalination and Water Treatment will be covered in the Web
of Science as well as in all appropriate abstracting services
such as:
Aqualine (Infoline)
Aquatic Sciences & Fisheries Abstracts (ASFA)
Chemical Abstracts
Chemical Engineering Abstracts
Current Contents (Engineering, Technology & Applied Sciences,
Physical, Chemical & Earth Sciences)
Dokumentation Wasser
Engineering Index
Environment Periodicals Bibliography: Indexed Article Titles
Health & Safety Science Abstracts
