ABOUT KINGABDULAZIZ

CITY FORSCIENCE AND

TECHNOLOGY(KACST):


5/30


King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) is a non-

profit scientific governmental institution. It supports and enhances

scientific applied research and coordinates the activities of

government institutions and scientific research centers in accordance

to the requirements of development in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

KACST also distributes its scientific publications to researchers,

students and interested members of the public. It is seeking to

disseminate the written and translated scientific books in order

to be available for a wide range of Arabic readers. All KACST

publications are also available electronically as open content on its

website; http://publications.kacst.edu.sa

OF STRATEGICTECHNOLOGIES


7/30


KACST has been working on an ecosystem that would enhance the

success of National Plans for Science, Technology and Innovation.

One component of such a complex ecosystem is to provide knowledge

about the 15 strategic technologies for Saudi Arabia.

KACST started with its partner, Springer, in 2011 to publish 5journals; Applied Water Science, Journal of Petroleum Exploration

and Production Technology, Applied Petrochemical Research,

Applied Nanoscience, and 3 Biotech.

Two more journals, Materials for Renewable & Sustainable Energy

and Complex & Intelligent Systems, have been lately added to the

previous ones in 2013 and 2014, respectively.

KACST, by publishing these journals, is providing the researchers

in Saudi Arabia and worldwide with the latest developments and

research in the areas of these journals, in addition of, making them

available for researchers to publish their research results. The

journals are open access and publish without charging the authors.

APPLIED WATER SCIENCE


9/30


Applied Water Science explores water scarcity solutions from a

holistic system oriented viewpoint. From the sustainable management

of natural water resources to the development of the technologies

and infrastructure for the production of clean fresh water from

natural and waste water.

The journal accepts innovative and sound theoretical research on

different water issues, exploring potential alternative water sources

via recycling and reuse of wastewater with a focus on arid and

semiarid environments and the following topics; water desalination,

drinking water treatment, wastewater treatment, water resources

planning, investigation and management.

Biotechnology


3 BIOTECH


17/30


3 Biotech is a quarterly Open Access journal that publishes the

results of the latest research related to the study and application of

biotechnology to:

Medicine and Biomedical Sciences

Agriculture

The Environment

The focus on these three technology sectors recognizes that

complete Biotechnology applications often require a combination

of techniques. 3 Biotech not only presents the latest developments

in biotechnology but also addresses the problems and benefits of

integrating a variety of techniques for a particular application. 3

Biotech will appeal to scientists and engineers in both academiaand industry focused on the safe and efficient application of

Biotechnology to Medicine, Agriculture and the Environment.

Articles from a huge variety of biotechnology applications are

welcome including cancer and stem cell research, genetic engineering

and cloning, bioremediation and biodegradation, bioinformatics and

system biology,
