Generally, “energies” can be defined as all the developments and applications regarding energy supply, conversion, application, and storage.
In the section “Analysis of Energies”, we welcome papers in various forms on the development and application of analytical methods and separation approaches in this field.
The separation and analysis of energies is a broad field that covers countless separation techniques and detection methods. These methods can be based on analysis approaches or chemical/physical separations of elements or compounds. Therefore, chromatographic methods will be the focus of this section. Nevertheless, non-based chromatographic separation approaches, e.g., deep eutectic solvents, physical separation, and other extraction approaches, are also welcome.
The identification/quantification or enhanced separation of elements and compounds is of particular interest. The methods should be validated in any case to show reliable performance.
Reports on quality control and the standardization of energy products or materials will also be considered based on their significance in the field.
Since there is an increasing number of reports every year, novelty will be the primary suitability criterion of all the submitted articles. The authors should always address the novelty of their proposed methodology and draw comparisons with previously reported methods.
The topics in “Analysis of Energies” will cover the following:
- The analysis of energies;
- The development of new methods;
- The identification and quantification of processes, elements, and compounds;
- The separation (mechanical or chemical) of elements and compounds;
- Extraction approaches;
- Quality control and standardization.
