《危險材料雜志》發(fā)表了完整的研究論文、評論文章和案例研究，以增進(jìn)我們對某些材料對公眾健康和環(huán)境構(gòu)成的危害和風(fēng)險的理解。有關(guān)控制和降低有害物質(zhì)風(fēng)險的方法的論文在該期刊的范圍內(nèi)。但是，以下領(lǐng)域被排除在外:非有害物質(zhì)、工作場所健康與安全、標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的城市廢物和廢水處理過程，包括營養(yǎng)素去除、溫室氣體減輕、有害物質(zhì)在生物體水平以下的毒理學(xué)(即細(xì)胞、代謝或分子水平)和爆炸物的制造。該雜志在以下方面發(fā)表了影響深遠(yuǎn)的文章:描述化學(xué)品和材料的有害影響(包括引起關(guān)注的污染物)HM的測量和監(jiān)控HM在環(huán)境中的遷移和命運(yùn)影響評估及管理脫HM的物理化學(xué)和分離過程先進(jìn)的氧化脫HM工藝脫HM的熱過程脫HM的生物過程展示了更安全、更清潔的技術(shù)資源回收(能源及物料)該雜志發(fā)表的論文具有重大的新穎性和科學(xué)影響。編輯保留在不經(jīng)外部審查的情況下，拒絕發(fā)表不符合上述標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的論文的權(quán)利，包括:

The Journal of Hazardous Materials publishes full-length research papers, review articles, and case studies that improve our understanding of the hazards and risks that certain materials pose to public health and the environment. Papers that deal with ways of controlling and mitigating risks of hazardous materials (HM) are within the scope of the journal. However, the following areas are excluded: non-hazardous materials, work place health & safety, standard municipal waste and wastewater treatment processes including nutrient removal, greenhouse gas mitigation, toxicology of hazardous materials below the organism level (i.e. at the cellular, metabolic, or molecular level), and the manufacturing of explosives.The Journal publishes high-impact contributions on:Characterization of the Harmful Effects of Chemicals and Materials (including contaminants of emerging concern)Measurement and Monitoring of HMTransport and Fate of HM in EnvironmentImpact Assessment and ManagementPhysico-chemical and Separation Processes for HM RemovalAdvanced Oxidation Process for HM RemovalThermal Processes for HM RemovalBiological Processes for HM RemovalDemonstrated Safer and Cleaner TechnologiesResource Recovery (Energy and Materials)The Journal publishes papers with significant novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the right to decline, without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria, including papers that:
