Description
Thermodynamic and kinetic principles for understanding the optimal conditions for catalytic reactions and the requirements for catalyst activity and accessibility.
Methods for the preparation of porous and dispersed catalysts using nucleation-growth, aggregation, and templating mechanisms.
Correlations between the structural properties and activity of heterogeneous catalysts.
Examples of the application of heterogeneous catalysts in refining and industrial chemistry processes.
Next, basic concepts of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis are explored
