Peer Review Process

All manuscripts submitted to the Jurnal Teknik Kimia USU are evaluated first by an editor. The editor will verify the completeness of manuscript according to author guideline and the suitability of the work to the focus and scope, and also similarity score by using turnitin. If a good reception is met, the manuscript is sent to peer reviewers. The submitted manuscripts to this journal will be peer-reviewed by at least two reviewers. All the review process are conducted in double blind review. For each manuscript, a peer reviewer will evaluate substantial contents in the manuscript. It will take approximately 4 weeks for an article to be reviewed. After comments from reviewer are obtained, the editor will evaluate and decide to further process or reject the manuscript. When a revision is needed, the reviewer comments will be sent to the author. The editor will then make further decision based on amendments of the author. If necessary, a second or further review process can be carried out until a final decision is made.
