Publication Ethics

EnviroTech follows the COPE Core Practices. Everyone involved in publishing (authors, editors, reviewers and the publisher) agrees to the following standards.

Authors

  • Submit original work that has not been published or is not under review elsewhere.
  • Report data honestly; fabrication, falsification and plagiarism are not allowed.
  • List as authors only people who contributed significantly, and declare all funding and conflicts of interest.
  • Promptly tell the editor about any significant error found after publication.

Editors

  • Judge manuscripts only on their scholarly merit, without regard to race, gender, religion, nationality or political view.
  • Keep all submitted manuscripts confidential.
  • Do not use unpublished material for their own research, and declare any conflict of interest.

Reviewers

  • Review objectively and on time, with clear arguments.
  • Treat manuscripts as confidential documents.
  • Decline the review if there is a conflict of interest, and report any suspected misconduct to the editor.

Publisher

The publisher protects editorial independence, ensures that the archive is preserved and works with the editors on corrections and retractions when needed.
