Environmental control technology, risk assessment, impact and management
The Journal of Hazardous Materials publishers full length research papers, reviews, project reports, case studies and short communications which improve our understanding of the hazards and risks certain materials pose to people and the environment or deal with ways of controlling the hazards and associated risks. To limit the scope the following areas are excluded: work place health& safety, drugs, and nuclear related topics. The Journal is published in two parts:
Part A: Risk Assessment and Management
Part B: Environmental Technologies
