Aims & Scope

Aims:

The journal Advanced Chemical Process Analysis (ACPA) is a gold open-access journal that aims to publish topics related to the application of exergy, energy and environmental analyses, digitalization, and simulation of separation and chemical processes, with special emphasis on the generation of green H2 and biogas, which contribute to their design, development, and optimization. Basic and applied research and innovative methodologies used by academics and educators that lead to a better understanding of digitalization and simulation of the current and future professionals of the chemical industry are also welcome. It is published biannually online by Scilight Press.

Scope:

ACPA publishes articles that focus on, but are not limited to, the following areas:

  • Advanced analysis of unit operations and chemical, environmental and energy processes from the exergy, energy, economic, and environmental points of view
  • Processes based on the use of renewable energies (production of green H2)
  • Process dynamics and regulation
  • Automation of simulators through third-party software
  • Digitalization and big data in the chemical, environmental and energy industry
  • Development of surrogate (digital twins) and hybrid models
  • Integration of different tools for the innovative analysis and design of chemical, environmental and energy processes
  • Optimization of chemical, environmental and energy processes
  • Simulation of chemical, environmental and energy process from the microscale to the macroscale
  • Green and sustainable chemical processes: carbon capture, utilization and storage
  • Bioenergy processes: fermentations, thermochemical conversions, fuels and petrochemical surrogates
  • Bioenergy utilization: combustion, gasification, chemical transformation and energy production
  • Biomass and the Environment: carbon cycle, sustainability and LCA
