6.20, submission (the submitted version was found to be wrong, so I submitted it again, and actually it was submitted on June 1); 7.28, major revision (it took 20 days for the first review and 2 months was given for revision); 9.20 revision submission (it was delayed by myself; I didn't dare to submit too early); 9.22, accept. The associate editor J.M Valente was very responsible, and processed the manuscript very quickly. It was accepted after major revision; it was nice. It is recommended the reply to be written as detailed as possible (23 pages of main text and 20 pages of reply). In addition, don’t submit the revised manuscript too early. It is ok to submit the revised manuscript about one week before the deadline.

Received, 8 January 2020; Revised, 22 March 2020; Accepted, 1 April 2020; Available online, 10 April 2020. This article was rejected by several journals. It is about nitrate adsorption. The title is Nitrate removal from aqueous solution using polyaniline modified activated carbon: Optimization and characterization. Everyone is welcome to read. Now the journal has been promoted to Q2, and the impact factor has steadily risen to more than 5. The good journal is worth being submitted to.

I submitted a manuscript to this journal on January 7, 2020. After one and a half months, the reviewer’s comments were received. The editor gave two months of revision time. After 21 days of revision, the revised manuscript was returned. After 12 days, the second review comments were received, and only a minor problem was raised. I fixed it the next day and returned the revised manuscript. It was accepted on April 2, 2020. Overall, the review speed of journal was still very fast. But now I encounter a problem, and I want to ask the bigwigs who have published articles. On April 3, I suddenly found that I didn’t pay attention when filling in the author information in the submission system (the first time I submitted to this journal). As a result, the corresponding author was defaulted to be the first author, but in all uploaded manuscript files, I am the first author. Which one shall prevail at the time of publication? Is there still a way to correct the first author to me in the system? Does this journal have a proof process? Can it be corrected at proof stage? An urgent request for help, thank you!

From submission to acceptance was about four months. The comments made by one reviewer, from the structure of the article to the details, helped the article to improve. This is a very good journal.

WOS has indexed and then removed it, this journal is likely to be excluded.

This journal is probably done for, I'm not counting on it anymore. Just feel very speechless and unlucky, finally finished writing the paper, submitted it there, and the worst part is it's put on hold right before publication. Damn.

(0) Thank | zkq22

This is so fucking stupid.
During Chinese New Year, I clearly saw that WOS had indexed my paper from issue 414!
But today, when I checked, all the papers after issue 413 were deleted... which means that all the papers published from last September until now cannot be found in the search results. Fuck, just one issue short!!!
What is WOS playing at??? They clearly indexed it, only to delete it afterwards.
This journal is done for, CTMD, I am really fed up, too unlucky!!!!!!
I advise everyone not to submit to them in the future, let's just consider this as a detour in the early stages of research.

Can the call be taken off hold? Is there any update?

(0) Thank | Phenol

Friend, when you mentioned being published in Journal of Molecular Liquids, does that mean it has been published in the WOS core collection now?

(0) Thank | on hold 麻了

After issue 413, it is put ON HOLD and will not be retrieved until it is resolved.

(0) Thank | 猪猪发论文

Submitted in November last year, accepted in January this year, included in issue 423, but cannot be retrieved in SCI, feeling very worried.

(0) Thank | Phenol

It's been so long and it's still not resolved, is it going to turn cold?

(0) Thank | 起名真难啊

My article was accepted in June and published in issue 408, but it was not indexed in SCI. I emailed to inquire about this, and Clarivate replied that the journal is on hold and they cannot index it. What a stroke of bad luck.

If the process has been completed online and something has been published, but it has not yet appeared in the WOS database, especially if there are omissions from the same period, you may consider contacting Clarivate directly.

Submission in June, revision in August. Returned in October, the reviewer disappeared, and accepted in November.
The editor-in-chief changed from Japanese to Portuguese, hoping to be released from on hold as soon as possible.
