discussions on the latest developments in chemical and biochemical engineering. The scope of

the journal is wide and no limitation except relevance to chemical and biochemical

engineering is required.

The criteria for the acceptance of papers are originality, quality of work and clarity of style.

All papers are subject to reviewing by at least two international experts.

The language of the journal is English.

Final versions of the manuscripts are subject to metric (SI units and IUPAC recommendations)

and English language reviewing.

Editor and Editorial board make the final decision about acceptance of a manuscript.

Page charges are excluded.

Types of contributions

The journal publishes original scientific papers, professional papers, notes, preliminary

Manuscript

Manuscript are submitted electronically as attachments in WORD format to E-mail letters

addressed to cabeq@pbf.hr. Optionally, paper copies of the manuscript and relevant

correspondence with the files on a computer disc can be sent to the Editorial office in Zagreb.Authors whose mother language is not English are urged to have their manuscripts checked

by other scientists who are familiar with the field and fluent in English.

1. Typing

Manuscripts (text and figures) should be prepared by WORD software. They must by typed

with double spacing, leaving ample margins on the sides. Pages should be numbered

consecutively. Manuscripts submitted to Editorial office in paper by post service are not

returned to authors

2. Heading

The title of the article includes the authors name, affiliation and full postal and E-mail

addresses at the head of the article. In case of a joint authorship, it should be stated to whom

the correspondence and proofs should be addressed.

3. Abstract

An abstract of 100-150 words reporting the intention, scope and conclusions should be

included at the beginning of the paper. The abstract is to be followed by 3-6 keywords.

4. Illustrations

Those should be provided in digital form included in WORD file. Their quality should be

suitable for direct reproduction. The following points should be observed:

- Illustrations should be labeled as Figures and numbered in sequence;- Curves should not run through signs but should merely touch upon open signs and

should stop short of solid signs;

- Each Figure should carry the authors' name, the title of the article and the Figurenumber. The figures should not be included in the text, but attached separately, withcaptions of Figures typed together on a separate sheet;

- Photographs (black and white only) should be restricted to the necessary minimum,each mounted on a separate sheet.
