Fundamental Concepts in Heterogeneous Catalysis (Hardcover)

The focus of the book is on the fundamental concepts that are needed to understand how solid surfaces act as catalysts. The aim is not to give a complete overview of types of catalysts or catalytic processes or to give a detailed introduction to the experimental and computational methods that are used to study them. A number of recent textbooks cover these areas very well; see the "further reading" list at the end of the chapter. We will use a number of simple catalytic processes as examples throughout, but only in order to develop the general rules according to which heterogeneous catalysis works. Chapters include: The Potential Energy Diagram; Surface Equilibria; RateConstants; Energy Trends in Catalysis; The Electron Factor in Heterogeneous Catalysis; Catalyst Structure: The Nature of the Active Site; Poisoning and Promotion of Catalysis; Surface Electrocatalysis; and Relation of Activity toSurface Electronic Structure
