Heterogeneous catalysis plays a part in the production of more than
80% of all chemical products. It is therefore essential that all
chemists and chemical engineers have an understanding of the
fundamental principles as well as the applications of heterogeneous
catalysts. This book introduces the subject, starting at a basic
level, and includes sections on adsorption and surface science,
catalytic kinetics, experimental methods for preparing and studying
heterogeneous catalysts, as well as some aspects of the design of
industrial catalytic reactors. It ends with a chapter that covers a
range of examples of important catalytic processes. The book leads
the student to carrying out a series of "tasks" based on searches
of the internet and also on the use of web-based search tools such
as Scopus or Web of Science. These tasks are generally based on the
text; they can be used entirely for self-study but they can also be
tailored to the requirements of a particular course by the
instructor/lecturer giving the course. The author has had over 40
years of experience in catalytic research as well as in lecturing
on the principles of catalysis. He was for more than 20 years the
Editor of Catalysis Today.
