Engineering Catalysis

With well over 90% of all processes in the industrial chemical

production being of catalytic nature, catalysis is a mature though

ever interesting topic. The idea of this book is to tackle various

aspects of heterogeneous catalysis from the engineering point of view

and go all the way from engineering of catalysis, catalyst

preparation, characterization, reaction kinetics, mass transfer to

catalytic reactors and the implementation of catalysts in chemical

technology. Aimed for graduate students it is also a useful resource

for professionals coming from the more academic side.
