The Journal of Health and Pollution welcomes manuscripts based on original research as well as findings from re-interpretation and examination of existing data.

JH&P focuses on point source pollution, related health impacts, environmental control and remediation technology.

JH&P also has an interest in ambient and indoor pollution.

Pollutants of particular interest include heavy metals, pesticides, radionuclides, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), air particulates (PM10 and PM2.5), and other severe and persistent toxins.
