General Rules (Title 12pt bold)

Jurnal presipitasi : Media Komunikasi dan Pengembangan Teknik Lingkungan contains original research, case study, and review article results in the environmental field that have never been published or are being considered for publication in other publications. Original research is the most common type of journal manuscript used to publish full reports of data from research. It may be called an Original Article, Research Article, Research, or just Article, depending on the journal rules. The original research article format is suitable for many different fields and different types of studies. It includes full Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion sections.  Case study article is articles report specific instances of interesting phenomena. A goal of case studies is to make other researchers aware of the possibility that a specific phenomenon might occur. This type of study is often used in medicine to report the occurrence of previously unknown or emerging pathologies. Review article is provide a comprehensive summary of research on a certain topic, and a perspective on the state of the field and where it is heading. They are often written by leaders in a particular discipline after invitation from the editors of a journal. Reviews are often widely read (for example, by researchers looking for a full introduction to a field) and highly cited. Reviews commonly cite approximately 100 primary research articles.Every article received by Jurnal Presipitasi is subject to a management/processing fee. Articles published in Jurnal Presipitasi are articles that have been subjected to peer-review processes. Articles published in the Jurnal Presipitasi are peer-reviewed before being published. The decision to accept whether or not an article is made by the Chief Editor in the Editor's Board Session forum is based on recommendations or comments from peer-reviewers.

The title of the article must be written briefly and clearly, and it must indicate exactly the problem to be raised, not to allow a variety of interpretations, written entirely in capital letters symmetrically.

Article Structure

1. Introduction

The introduction must contain (in sequence) a general background, a previous literature review (state of the art) as a basis for the statement of scientific renewal of the article, a statement of scientific novelty, and a research problem or hypothesis. At the end of the introduction, the purpose of the article should be written. In the scientific article format it is not permissible to review the literature as in the research report, but is manifested in the form of a previous literature review (state of the art) to demonstrate the scientific novelty of the article.

2. Methods

The research method is a procedure for how a research will be carried out to solve problems including the method of analysis. The methods contain the main equipment used in the research and the materials written here are only the main materials and must be stated with the brand and purity (for example: H2SO4 (Merck, 99%). Equipment written in the section this contains only the main equipment only stated with brands (for example: Electric furnace (Thermofisher). The supporting equipment components do not need to be written down. The main equipment series should be presented in this section supplemented with picture captions. Picture captions are placed as part of the title of the drawing (figure caption) is not part of the picture. The methods used in completing the research are written in this section.

3. Result and Discussion

Heading level 2

Heading level 3

The results and discussion contain the results of research findings and the scientific discussion. Write scientific findings obtained from the results of research that has been done but must be supported by adequate data. The scientific findings referred to here are not the research data obtained. These scientific findings must be explained scientifically including:

1. What scientific findings were obtained? 

• ................................................................ 

• …………………………………………………………..

2. Why does that happen?

3. Why are variable trends like that?

All of these questions must be explained scientifically, not only descriptive, if necessary supported by adequate basic scientific phenomena. In addition, it should be explained also the comparison with the results of other researchers who are almost the same topic. Research results and findings must be able to answer the research hypotheses in the introduction. Each equation is written in the middle of the column and given a number written in brackets and placed at the end of the right margin. Equations must be written using Equation Editor in MS Word or Open Office (Primack, 1983). For bullet and numbered list level 1 use identation with left 0.5 cm and right -0.11 cm.
