This volume looks at modern approaches to catalysis and reviews the
extensive literature. Chapters highlight microkinetic modeling,
encapsulated metals for confined catalysis, recent advances on the
direct decomposition of NOx and heteropolyacid catalysts. There is
also a chapter reviewing methods for estimating adsorption energies
on catalytic surfaces, which will provide information from both
fundamental and technological points of view. Appealing broadly to
researchers in academia and industry, the detailed chapters bridge
the gap from academic studies in the laboratory to practical
applications in industry, not only for the catalysis field, but
also for environmental protection. The book will be of great
benefit to any researcher wanting a succinct reference on
developments in this area now and looking to the future.
This volume looks at modern approaches to catalysis and reviews the
extensive literature. Chapters highlight application of 2D
materials in biomass conversion catalysis, plasmonic
photocatalysis, catalytic demonstration of mesoporosity in the
hierarchical zeolite and the effect of surface phase oxides on
supported metals and catalysis. Looking to the future a chapter on
ab initio machine learning for accelerating catalytic materials
discovery is included. Appealing broadly to researchers in academia
and industry, these illustrative chapters bridge the gap from
academic studies in the laboratory to practical applications in
industry not only for catalysis field but also for environmental
protection. Other chapters with an industrial perspective include
heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic routes for vinyl acetate
synthesis, catalysis for production of jet fuel from renewable
sources by HDO/HDC and microwave-assisted catalysis for fuel
conversion. Chemical reactions in ball mills is also explored. The
book will be of great benefit to any researcher wanting a succinct
reference on developments in this area now and looking to the
future.
Catalysts are required for a variety of applications and
researchers are increasingly challenged to find cost effective and
environmentally benign catalysts to use. This volume looks at
modern approaches to catalysis and reviews the extensive literature
including direct methane conversion, nanocomposite catalysts for
transformation of biofuels into syngas and hydrogen, and catalytic
wet air oxidation technology for industrial wastewater treatment.

Industrial and academic scientists face increasing challenges to
find cost-effective and environmentally sound methods for
converting natural resources into fuels, chemicals and energy. With
over 7000 papers published in this field of catalysis each year,
keeping up with the literature can be difficult. Catalysis Volume
27 presents critical and comprehensive reviews of the hottest
literature published over the last twelve months. Covering major
areas such as chemical transformations using two-dimensional hybrid
nanocatalysts, conversion of biomass-derived syngas to fuels and
catalytic oxidation of organic pollutants in aqueous solution using
sulfate radicals, this book is a useful reference for anyone
working in catalysis and an essential resource for any library.
Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) isomers of linoleic acid - a
compound derived from meat and dairy products. Attention was first
drawn to their potential anti-carcinogen properties in the 1980's;
since then further health benefits have been reported, and
applications in the glue and paint industries as a renewable
resource have been explored. This comprehensive book presents an
overview of the background and research into CLA and examines each
of their applications in the context of the chemistry surrounding
them and CLA-enriched oils. The biosynthesis of CLA is presented,
with a discussion on how animal husbandry could promote CLA
production. Other chapters examine the current strategies for their
synthesis using bespoke catalysts and enzymes. Readers from
academia and industry will find the layout of the book highly
accessible, with sections for each application. The editors are
both active researchers in the field, and have brought together a
wealth of expertise from across the globe, presenting a
comprehensive guide to this valuable group of compounds and their
potential applications.
