Book Description | Catalysis: Principles and Basic Concepts covers a wide range of topics and issues such as heterogeneous, homogeneous, photo-catalysis, bio-catalysis, phase transfer catalysis, energy and environment, etc. Enough importance is given to the quality and stress to each chapter. This book is useful to UG and PG students of chemistry and chemical engineering, researcher and scientists in catalysis, teachers of catalytic stream of chemical sciences including chemists and chemical engineers from industries. One of the most important aspects of energy is to develop method for exploiting, converting, and optimizing energy sources. Catalysis serves as a crosscutting science in this aspect, with the potential to lead and to bring out of the energy crisis. All round efforts are made to include as many as required chapters for the introductory courses and some advance stage level courses on catalysis for chemical sciences. Catalysis is an interdisciplinary subject and required to be flourished to under-graduate and graduate curriculum in chemistry and chemical technology. This book shall help as a suitable text or reference book for such curriculum. |
