Full Paper Info

Abstract and full paper sub­mis­sion needs to be done elec­tron­ic­ally through Conf­Tool, our online Con­fer­ence organ­iz­ing soft­ware. Before sub­mit­ting your full paper, make sure you are registered with the online tool.

Like all IMWA pub­lic­a­tions, all sub­mis­sions will under­go a peer review pro­cess.

Our mem­bers of the Inter­na­tion­al Sci­entif­ic Com­mit­tee cat­egor­ized all abstracts into one of the two present­a­tion types Oral or Poster. Both present­a­tion types will appear in the pro­ceed­ings volume of IMWA 2025. Because we are expect­ing a large num­ber of papers, we had to restrict the num­ber of pages to a max­im­um of 6. Please be advised that the 6 pages must be in DIN A4 format, includ­ing fig­ures, tables and ref­er­ences. The Ses­sion Chairs will be asked to select the best papers of their ses­sion and those authors will be invited to expand and update their con­fer­ence paper for poten­tial pub­lic­a­tion in our journ­al, “Mine Water and the Envir­on­ment,” after the Con­fer­ence.

Full papers and full pay­ment of the regis­tra­tion fees are man­dat­ory for oral present­a­tions. For a poster present­a­tion, it is up to you wheth­er or not you wish to pre­pare a paper. But please be advised that only full papers will be pub­lished in the pro­ceed­ings. There­fore, we highly encour­age authors to pre­pare a full paper. Also, please note that only papers will be lis­ted on the Web of Sci­ence.

FAQ

  • To be included in the IMWA 2025 pro­gram, you must sub­mit a full paper using the IMWA 2025 tem­plate. If you don’t upload any­thing into the con­fer­ence man­age­ment pro­gram Conf­Tool, we will assume that you do not wish to attend the con­fer­ence.
  • The 4 Feb­ru­ary 2025 dead­line is firm and can­not be exten­ded. We need to give the review­ers enough time to review the papers so that you can make appro­pri­ate revi­sions. Then we need to reformat the papers and have the pro­ceed­ings ready before the con­fer­ence begins.
  • When upload­ing your full paper (https://www.conftool.org/imwa2025/index.php?page=submissions), please use your sub­mis­sion ID lar­ger than 1000 only. Also, make sure that you update the list of authors to match those in your paper. Finally, make sure that the full paper abstract in Conf­Tool, which can be dif­fer­ent from the ini­tial review ver­sion, matches the abstract in your paper (inde­pend­ently from its length).
  • Make sure you use the IMWA 2025 tem­plate and fol­low the author guidelines giv­en above.
  • The IMWA 2025 Pro­ceed­ings will have an ISBN (978–3‑9825293–3‑2) and full papers will be lis­ted in the Web of Sci­ence.
