Publisher's Synopsis
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.
