2020.5.1 submitted to journal; 2020.5.3 with editor; 2020.5.8 under review; 2020.6.26 under editor evaluation; 2020.7.6 revise, with two reviewers; 2020.7.15 revision submitted to journal; 2020.7.18 with editor; 2020.7.18 under review; 2020.8.2 required reviews completed; 2020.8.20 revise (I learned through customer service that there were only two reviewers, so required reviews completed indicated that the reviewers have all completed the review. But the editor didn’t notify the result. We waited for 18 days and couldn’t wait any longer. We urged the editor through the customer service of Elsevier. The result was given on the same day. So sometimes the editor may forget it and it’s necessary to urge it after a certain time. 2020.8.20 revision submitted to journal; 2020.8.22 with editor. It then was accepted about an hour later.

2019/7/26 Submission; 2019/8/20 The first review comments came back, two reviewers asked 16 questions. Revise. 2019/9/10 The first revised manuscript was submitted; 2019/12/29 It took a long three and a half months before the second review comments came back. The third reviewer had no comments. The fourth reviewer just asked some questions about sentences and grammar. The fifth reviewer asked 16 small questions. Revise. 2020/1/14 The second revised manuscript was submitted; 2020/2/1 Reject. The fifth reviewer suggested rejection, and the editor made a decision to reject the manuscript, but the reason for rejection of the fifth reviewer was very insufficient and very stubborn. He misunderstood some of the experimental data included. The esterification reaction was catalyzed after the modification of the raw material. Therefore, the pore size data of the material before and after the modification were listed, but the reviewer even misread the pore size of the material before modification as that of after modification, and rejected the manuscript, saying that the pore size was too large to meet the experimental requirements. Although we have stated in the response letter, the reviewer still did not read the article carefully and took it out of context. This showed that the reviewers did not understand the article at all, nor did they read our response letter seriously!!! And then jump to a decision to reject the manuscript!! No one would have thought that after two revisions in half a year, the manuscript was rejected in the end! We wrote a letter of appeal to the editor in chief, and have not received a reply yet.

Luck matters sometimes when submitting. For the same journal, the review speed is different from person to person. And you should have a good attitude toward it~ 3.20 submission; 3.21 handled by Principal Editor Zuohua Huang, Ph.D.; 3.24 handled by Associate Principal Editor Yasushi Sekine, Ph.D. (Professors were really super fast and status were required reviews completely. And they will give you feedback on the same day. They were even given during the holidays in Japan twice, and they were still working. Thumb-up, thumb-up, thumb-up, awesome!). 3.27 Under review. In April the time updated twice. 4.29 First review ends (4 reviewers, 2 of them required major revision, 2 of them required minor revision. I wrote 24 pages of reply to them. It should be answered seriously). 5.15 re-submitted 5.18 under review 5.20 completely. And it was under review after a while (Probably only 2 revisions) 6.4 I thought time changed and went fast. Ha ha. 6.7 accept. I wish you all good luck~

May. 27 submitted but June 4 returned by the editor, asking us to provide black and white figures, and the manuscript can't exceed 30 pages (we modified the margins to solve this). June 8 under review; June 23 required reviews completed; July 4 revise, two reviewers both requested minor revisions, and the editor gave us 15 days. July 12 Submitted a revised verison; July 13 under review; Aug. 13 required reviews completed; Aug. 15 accepted; Aug. 16 proof. A relatively smooth submission. The impact factor has risen to 4.6, and this is a long-standing journal in the energy category. The associate editor is very responsible and returned the review comments fast. The revised paper was sent to the reviewers even if it was just minor revision, so it took a month to get the results.

Minor revision was recommended after revision, submitted revised manuscript after revision. No reply from journal after three month. Mailed and finally rejected even after reviewer seems to be satisfied with the revised manuscript. Conclusion: In this journal a paper can get rejected even after minor revision and even when the reviewers are satisfied with revised manuscript.

It was a very interesting experience. The paper was reviewed just after 10 days with three expert reviewers. The comments are a lot but relevant. Then, the paper was accepted after 3 days of revision submission. Prof Suuberg as the editor was very professional and helpful. Great Job!

Submitted in February 2018, started the trial after the Spring Festival, because I have not been looking forSee the reviewer, so the external trial lasted for five months, and in August it was overhauled and two reviewers.One of the reviewers gave a more positive opinion, but the other gave a particularly difficult opinion, and recommended me a lot of literature references (estimated to be his article or his opinion), I feel that it is very difficult to modify.After all, I was involved in the modeling of coupled mechanics, but I tried my best to modify it according to the review comments and returned it after 21 days.After undergoing a second external trial (still the same reviewer), the second external trial time was also relatively long, nearly 50 days, accepted on October 10.

The review speed is beyond my expectation. I will give the review comments and overhaul after less than one month. After more than 20 days, I will submit the revised draft and directly accept it one month later!The editor is very good and the efficiency is very high. The suggestions made by the experts are very valuable and help the quality of the article!

Efficiency is still relatively high, one month overhaul for one month, two reviewers, each gave 7,8 comments,Fortunately, it is not necessary to make up the data two weeks later to modify the submission, and then sent to the reviewer at hand, returning after one month of the second trial, minor repair, language problems, given half a month, submitted after one week, received the next day, the editor is very responsiblePeople, if they want to have innovation, it is worth trying.
