Description
Book SynopsisFour decades of landmark discoveries in heterogeneous catalysis
Presenting an historical record of four decades of landmark research, this book draws together an important collection of heterogeneous catalysis papers published by Professor Eli Ruckenstein and his colleagues. One of the most prolific leaders in the field of heterogeneous catalysis today, Dr. Ruckenstein has pioneered methods in catalysis, surface chemistry, and materials science that are now used to develop new chemicals, energy sources, and materials.
Heterogeneous Catalysis offers new insights into the underlying mechanisms and chemistry of heterogeneous catalysis. Moreover, the book will help readers develop new applications for both basic research and industry.
Coverage includes:
- Catalysts in various reactions including methane CO2 reforming, methane partial oxidation, and catalytic combustion
- Applications of materials such as zeolites, me
