If you are invited to give a lecture during the UNITECR conference, you are at the same time invited to publish a scientific paper, either in the UNITECR conference proceedings book or in a special issue of the “Open Ceramics” peer-reviewed journal by Elsevier. This is mandatory.
You can choose whether you want to publish your scientific paper in the UNITECR conference proceedings book (PDF) or in a special refractories issue “Refractories for the Carbon Challenge” of the “Open Ceramics” scientific journal by Elsevier.
The deadline for the publication in the “Proceedings Book” and in the “Open Ceramics” is June 30th 2023.
