Description
Thermodynamic and kinetic bases to understand the optimal conditions for catalytic reactions and the requirement of activity and accessibility of catalysts.
Methods for the preparation of porous and dispersed catalysts by nucleation-growth, aggregation and templating mechanisms.
Correlations between structural properties and activity of heterogeneous catalysts.
Examples of applications of heterogeneous catalysts to processes of refining and industrial chemistry.
Further on basic concepts of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis are explored
