Indeed, not only slow but also inefficient.

李炎 2023-07-13

You are really good at whitewashing. The editor is not careful at all. There are many errors in the paper, and some even got the basic common sense wrong.
An impact factor of 4, it's a journal with a medium to low level in the second tier.

Impact factor 4, lower-middle level in the second zone, not a top journal... It will definitely be in the third zone next year.

李炎 2023-07-13

In the field of hydrometallurgy, the research group has published 8 papers in this journal in the past 5 years. The boss has already requested not to submit any more in recent years.
Objectively speaking, the level of this journal is average, and it is generally considered to be in the lower range of the second tier.
If the research group can publish two more papers in it, it will be easier to get accepted in the future even with lower quality work.
So, if you see someone publishing many papers in Hydrometallurgy, it is better to stay away as they are likely to be opportunistic and not serious researchers.

4.26 UNDER REVIEW is too slow.

The paper went through 5.5 months of revisions. I would like to thank Dr. Gamini Senanayake, the editor-in-chief, and the reviewers for their careful modifications, which greatly improved the quality of the paper. I am grateful for the following submission process:

October 20, 2022: Submitted
October 21, 2022: Assigned handing editor
November 2, 2022: Under review
December 3, 2022: Major revision with two reviewers. One did not express their opinion, while the other had a positive inclination. I was given one month to make the revisions, but due to contracting COVID-19, the deadline was extended by 10 days.
January 5, 2023: Submitted the revised manuscript and sent it back to the original two reviewers on January 8.
January 15, 2023: Minor revision with one reviewer's approval and the other reviewer raising some additional questions. I was given half a month to make the revisions.
January 28, 2023: Submitted the revised manuscript and sent it for external review on January 30. The external review process took approximately over a month, possibly delayed by one of the reviewers who did not provide feedback promptly.
March 12, 2023, to April 5, 2023: Underwent two more rounds of minor revisions without another round of review. The focus was mainly on addressing the questions raised by the editor. I would like to express my deep gratitude to Dr. Gamini Senanayake, the editor-in-chief, for his meticulous modifications, as it was almost word-for-word, which deeply moved me.
April 5, 2023: Received the revised manuscript and within two hours received the acceptance email.

Overall, the submission process went relatively smoothly. I hope the journal continues to thrive and improve!

It has been 90 days, and it is still under review. The first review comments have not yet been received. Today, I couldn't resist sending a reminder letter, hoping that the editor will respond.

Ah, on August 20th, there was another change, but there were no updates afterwards. Could it be that the reviewer rejected it? It's been 45 days already, so slow!

良月不语 2022-08-20

Really slow, very slow, super slow~

化工科研狗呢 2022-08-17

It has been one month and it is still "Under review". On August 14th, the date changed, so maybe a reviewer has submitted their comments. JECE guarantees a review result within three weeks, and acceptance within two months. I hope the processing speed for wet metallurgy can be accelerated! I hope to return to the publication of Chuan Da B Journal soon (please promise me).

One week has passed and it is still "Submitted to Journal". This journal is extremely slow, so just wait!

It has been 7 months already. I am really drunk.

Currently, Xiao Xiu has returned but is still stuck in the hands of the editor.

It has been over four months and it is still under review.

keyanxiaochong 2021-09-29

The revised additional content will be submitted again after undergoing a major revision and a minor revision. As there is no rush, I am very patient, and each modification took two weeks. The whole process took a total of 5 months.

How many days did it ultimately end up in the hands of the editor?

一稿过的孩纸 2021-06-29

20 days or with editor.

keyanxiaochong 2021-05-12

One month later, there was no submission for review because the submission was based on a previous rejected article, and it required a response to the reviewer before resubmission.

keyanxiaochong 2021-03-11

It has been over 20 days since the submission, and it is still "with editor". Recently, there seems to be a high volume of articles, so it may take longer for the article to be reviewed. I will provide an update once there is a result.
