Fuel Aims & Scope
Research into energy sources remains a key issue. Over the last 100 years, Fuel has been the leading source of primary research work in fuel science. The scope is broad and includes many topics of increasing interest such as environmental aspects and pollution.
A wide variety of fuels are covered:
- Fuel cells
- Coke
- Hydrogen generation and use
- Oils and gases
- Synthetic fuels (including Dimethyl ether (DME), Methanol etc)
- Biofuels
- Advances in catalysis in sustainable fuels
- Natural gas
- Advances in materials for energy
- Petroleum
- Sustainable new fuels - road, aviation and marine
- Control of emissions from new fuels
- Waste-derived fuels (WDF)
- Refuse-derived fuels (RDF)
- Carbon with applications to fuel energy
- Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage - Science and Technologies
Types of Contributions
Contributions falling into the following categories are considered for publication :
• Original high-quality research papers. Preferably no more than 20 double line spaced manuscript pages, including tables and illustrations. Figures and tables can be embedded in the text or on separate page(s) at the end.
•Short communications. No more than 10 double line spaced manuscript pages including tables and figures.
• Letters. No more than 1000 words and two illustrations/tables.
•Review articles. Before preparing a review article for Fuel, authors are encouraged to discuss any proposed review with the relevant editor depending on their region (please see https://www.journals.elsevier.com/fuel/editorial-board/).

Fuel and Elsevier Policy for Declaration of generative AI in scientific writing
Where authors use generative artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process, authors should only use these technologies to improve readability and language. Applying the technology should be done with human oversight and control, and authors should carefully review and edit the result, as AI can generate authoritative-sounding output that can be incorrect, incomplete or biased. AI and AI-assisted technologies should not be listed as an author or co-author, or be cited as an author. Authorship implies responsibilities and tasks that can only be attributed to and performed by humans, as outlined in Elsevier’s AI policy for authors.
Authors should disclose in their manuscript the use of AI and AI-assisted technologies in the writing process by following the instructions below. A statement will appear in the published work. Please note that authors are ultimately responsible and accountable for the contents of the work.
