From the contents: 'ˆ— Catalysis in perspective 'ˆ— Concepts and methods 'ˆ— The chemistry of catalytic reactivity 'ˆ— Catalytic conversions 'ˆ— Catalyst synthesis and materials 'ˆ— Experimental methods 'ˆ— Reactor devices and operation 'ˆ— The design of catalytic systems/processes 'ˆ— Future perspectives In addition, several case studies illustrate the importance of catalysts in the chemical industry.

Author Biography

Matthias Beller obtained his PhD at the University of G?ttingen, Germany and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, USA. Since 1998, he has been head of the Leibniz Institute for Organic Catalysis at University of Rostock. He is a member of the board of Dechema's Catalysis Section, the German Catalysis Competence Network ("ConNeCat") as well as the Innovationsagentur Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. He is also a member of the Association for Technical Sciences of the Union of German Academies of Sciences and Humanities.
