Download or read book Engineering Catalysis written by Dmitry Murzin and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
