Peer Review Process

EnviroTech uses double-blind peer review: authors and reviewers do not know each other's identity. Every manuscript is reviewed by at least two reviewers with expertise in the field.

Stages

1. Initial screening by the editor: scope, template and similarity check (maximum 20%). Within 7 days.
2. Reviewer assignment: the editor assigns at least two reviewers.
3. Review: reviewers send their assessment and recommendation within 3 weeks.
4. Editorial decision: Accept, Minor Revision, Major Revision or Reject, based on the reviewers' recommendations.
5. Author revision: authors return the revised manuscript with a response to reviewers within 2 weeks.
6. Copyediting, layout and proofreading: the manuscript is edited and the authors check the final proof.
7. Publication: the article is published online and receives a DOI.
