Hydrogen gas sensor field
Submitted on November 3, 2021
First review on January 4, 2022, major revision, the deadline was three weeks, but it was delayed due to the Spring Festival. I sent two letters to the editor before the deadline, asking for an extension, but the editor ignored them. Initially, I submitted the revised manuscript and then delayed the submission date. The editor found six reviewers, which seemed crazy. I only responded with about 20 pages. One of the reviewers was from Korea and another from India. They directly requested citations of their papers, which were not relevant and of poor quality. My initial reaction was to confront them, but then I decided against it because I am a newcomer and had previously been maliciously rejected for confronting someone.
Revised manuscript returned on February 21, 2022
The submission system showed receipt on February 23, 2022
Minor revisions for the second review on March 14, 2022. The reviewer seemed to be European and somewhat eccentric, insisting on changing American spelling to British spelling. However, they raised a very profound question, and after contemplating, I realized the brilliance of it. The revised manuscript addressed this point.
The submission system showed receipt for the second review on March 17, 2022
Rejected on March 19, 2022, because the student uploaded a PDF, and the journal required an editable file.
Uploaded an editable file on March 20, 2022
Accepted on March 23, 2022.

Posted on 2021.12.01, it took about ten days to be "with editor." I sent a letter to urge the submission, and after a few days, it went "under review." However, it has been under review for too long. I refreshed it twice on 2.1 and 3.14, but it is still "under review." If there are no results soon, I will have to withdraw the submission.

This is the fastest time for hydrogen energy submission. The manuscript was submitted on January 25th and the revision decision was received on February 15th. Both reviewers (their professional opinions greatly helped improve the quality of the article) accepted the revised version. The revised manuscript was submitted on January 27th and the acceptance email was received on March 3rd, just over a month.

Posted on 11.06, under reviewer refreshed the progress on 1.18, and there has been no news until now. It is still related to electrochemistry.

I advise everyone that if you are in a hurry, do not submit to this journal, as it is incredibly slow.

In my impression, it only took 1 week to submit for review.

May I ask how long it takes for your article to be reviewed after being edited?

There was only one reviewer who provided nearly 40 questions, which were very detailed. After making the revisions, the article improved significantly. Grateful for the year 2021!

It is now January, and the situation has remained the same without any changes. The manuscript has been urged, but the outcome is unknown. Please be cautious when submitting.

Do I need to use a specific template for submitting contributions?

Second time got accepted, let me explain the process:
10.10 submit
10.15 with editor
10.29 Required Reviews Completed
11.5 Required Reviews Completed
11.14 Required Reviews Completed
11.16 revision
12.3 revised
12.6 under review
12.12 Required Reviews Completed
12.19 Required Reviews Completed
12.21 accept

Every time the reviewer completes the review, it will show "Required Reviews Completed". This usually happens 3-5 times, but in my field, it is usually 3 reviewers. Their feedback greatly improves the article. When revising, it is important to do a good job and respond positively to the reviewer's comments.

I got accepted by this journal for the second time. I am grateful for the many constructive suggestions from the reviewers and editors.

Finally, pursuing a Ph.D. is not easy. I hope everyone who works hard will continue to improve. Good luck! ヾ(◍°∇°◍)ノ゙

12.12 submission, 12.19 with editor... No chance of review before Christmas.
Last year I submitted an article in October, it was quite fast. How come it's like this now?

Recently, the review speed is super slow, especially when it has been in the hands of the editor for a long time.

It is indeed getting slower... Wait and invest cautiously for graduation.

mll1993 2021-12-12

It has been nearly 7 months since the submission, and it has been 3 and a half months since the second revision was sent back with comments from the reviewer. There has been no news at all. It might be better not to submit to this journal anymore, as it is too slow.

今天论文送审了嘛 2021-12-02

Everyone, be cautious about submitting to this journal. It has been over a month since I submitted my manuscript, and it has not been sent for review yet. I am planning to withdraw my submission as the editor has not responded with approval. I strongly advise students who need their articles for graduation or applying to universities not to submit here.

mll1993 2021-12-01

Returned for revision on October 3rd, but still under review on December 1st. It has been over six months now, and all six reviewers have provided positive feedback. This journal is getting slower and slower.

11.24 required reviews completed

Thank you very much for the reviewer's patience in providing comments. The article has indeed been improved.
Thanks to the editor!

On August 11th, under review.
I submitted a review paper: the status today is still under review.
After submitting, I realized that due to Word to PDF conversion, some formulas in the table were blocked and there were three punctuation errors.
Does this have a big impact?
Will it be rejected directly?
Newbie, first time submitting.

Let's not bother with this journal anymore. Graduation will definitely be delayed if we rely on it, and even the hot topics will be outdated. The editor is so irresponsible!!!!
