The Handbook of Catalysis covers the principles of catalysis as well as contemporary ideas and applications. It covers all critical areas of this vital subject, including as homogeneous, heterogeneous, and biocatalysis, as well as kinetics, catalyst characterization and production, reactor design. The book discusses the history of heterogeneous catalysis and its relevance in the present world, surfaces and adsorption, the catalyst (production and characterization), the reactors, and catalysis applications in many areas. The Handbook of Catalysis is an indispensable reference for chemists, chemical engineers, and graduate and postgraduate students studying catalysis and reaction engineering. The ideal source of information for undergraduate and graduate students of chemical engineering and chemistry, as well as for practicing scientists looking to brush up on their skills.
