Frontiers in Environmental Engineering is a multidisciplinary journal that focuses on the latest advancements in environmental engineering.

Led by Field Chief Editor Bing-Jie Ni from the University of New South Wales, Frontiers in Environmental Engineering welcomes research contributions in various domains of environmental engineering, which bridge the gap between scientific principles and engineering tools for maintaining and improving natural ecosystems. Topics include, but are not limited to:

air pollution
climate changes
environmental catalysis
environmental management
hazardous solid wastes
heavy metal pollution
micro(nano)plastics pollution
soil degradation
water and wastewater treatment

The journal's emphasis on developing new techniques for treating and controlling pollutants across various environmental matrices, including water, aligns with the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6: Clean Water and Sanitation. Additionally, the journal's focus on addressing major environmental challenges contributes to several other SDGs, such as:

SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities
SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
SDG 13: Climate Action
SDG 14: Life Below Water
SDG 15: Life on Land

Manuscripts that do not significantly contribute to the advancement of environmental engineering or the mitigation of environmental challenges are considered out of scope for this journal.

Frontiers in Environmental Engineering is committed to advancing developments in the field of environmental engineering by allowing unrestricted access to articles and communicating scientific knowledge to researchers and the public alike, enabling the scientific breakthroughs of the future.
