May I ask if the final email notification requires self-payment or the option to choose whether it is OA? I haven't received the email yet, and I'm getting a bit anxious. This journal is free of charge, right?

The manuscript submitted at the end of last year was rejected in the first review, but the editor gave an opportunity for resubmission, allowing for revisions based on the reviewer's comments. I made the necessary improvements and also conducted additional experiments. The review process generally takes about a month, and the editor's response is relatively slow. It takes some time from the submission to the external review, unlike some journals that send it out within a few days. This article can be considered as the first article in the field of water treatment, but it involves a long wait. Fortunately, each time the feedback came back, it gradually improved: rejection, resubmission with minor revisions, and finally acceptance. If you are in a hurry to get the article, it can be a bit frustrating, but the reviewers were good and willing to give a chance for resubmission.

Yes, my situation has already been going on for seven months. It has been ongoing without any results. Suddenly, it has become very slow. Sigh.

This year's submission may also encounter delays, as the journal has changed its editing team, which has caused some additional time. The number of reviewers has increased from 2 to 5, and they are carefully selected, often seeking reviewers from the same ethnic background. From sharp criticism to unanimous acceptance, it is not easy. Judging the difficulty of submission based on the Chinese Academy of Sciences' classification is not very accurate, this is my overall impression.

Submitted for two and a half months, it has been constantly switching between the "with editor" and "in peer review" statuses. Then, I messaged the editor to inquire about the status and the next day, the editor rejected it, citing the reason that they couldn't find any reviewers.

It has been three months for me too, jumping back and forth repeatedly, oh my goodness...

My manuscript has been under review for three months now, and I have changed between editors and in peer review several times.

The direction is advanced ozone oxidation, and the review comments were received promptly. There was a slight delay in the middle due to the lengthy modifications. All three review comments required major revisions, but the suggestions given were very helpful. The impact factor of this journal is increasing year by year, and it is expected to return to the second quartile in about two years.
The water impact statement mainly focuses on highlighting the highlights of one's own research and the significance of the research related to water.

May I ask if you are doing ozone catalytic oxidation treatment of wastewater? Does this direction align?

Hello, what content should be included in the water impact statement for the journal? I'm a bit confused since it's my first time submitting to this magazine.

The speed is acceptable. It took a long time to find reviewers, and there were several back-and-forth exchanges between peer review and the editor. The comments and suggestions provided by the reviewers were very good and responsible. The second round of review took a long time because one of the reviewers did not respond, and ultimately only two reviewers' comments were given.
