Use when targeting Chemical Engineering Journal or deciding whether an applied chemical-engineering / functional-materials manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the applied-advance-with-mechanism bar, performance and benchmarking rigor, house style, the applied-vs-fundamentals routing, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

# Chemical Engineering Journal (chemical-engineering-journal) ## Journal positioning Chemical Engineering Journal (Elsevier) is a broad, high-volume venue for chemical engineering with a strong **applied and functional-materials emphasis**: reaction engineering and catalysis for environmental and energy applications, adsorption and separation, functional materials engineered for chemical-engineering processes, and water/energy treatment and conversion. Where AIChE Journal rewards the transferable principle, this journal rewards a demonstrated, well-characterized advance on a real process problem — provided the work still explains *why* it works, not only *that* it works. Papers that report a new material and a property number with no mechanistic or process insight, or that lack credible benchmarking, are a weak fit. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official author guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live Chemical Engineering Journal Guide for Authors on the Elsevier site. ## When to trigger - The author names Chemical Engineering Journal for an applied catalysis, adsorption, separation, functional-materia

What does the chemical-engineering-journal skill do?
Use when targeting Chemical Engineering Journal or deciding whether an applied chemical-engineering / functional-materials manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the applied-advance-with-mechanism bar, performance and benchmarking rigor, house style, the applied-vs-fundamentals routing, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill chemical-engineering-journal --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
