Aims & Scope

Environmental and Climate Technologies provides a forum for information on innovation, research and development in the areas of environmental science, energy resources and processes, innovative technologies and energy efficiency. Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts which cover the range of topic from bioeconomy, sustainable technology development, life cycle analysis, eco-design, climate change mitigation, innovative solutions for pollution reduction to resilience, the energy efficiency of buildings, secure and sustainable energy supplies. The Journal ensures international publicity for original research and innovative work. A variety of themes are covered through a multi-disciplinary approach, one which integrates all aspects of environmental science: Sustainability of technology development Bioeconomy Cleaner production, end of pipe production Zero emission technologies Eco-design Life cycle analysis Eco-efficiency Environmental impact assessment Environmental management systems Resilience Energy and carbon markets Greenhouse gas emission reduction and climate technologies Methodologies for the evaluation of sustainability Renewable energy resources Solar, wind, geothermal, hydro energy, biomass sources: algae, wood, straw, biogas, energetic plants and organic waste Waste management Quality of outdoor and indoor environment Environmental monitoring and evaluation Heat and power generation, including district heating and/or cooling Energy efficiency
