Abstract
Abstract Catalysis and heterogeneous catalysts are essential to our present technology for the production and consumption of fuels, the manufacture and processing of chemical feedstocks and plastics [1,2]. It had been estimated that the introduction of this technology has permitted savings of more than 400 million barrels of oil each year [l]. Today, worldwide catalysts sales exceed $5.9 billion per year, and it has been estimated that catalysts generate fuels and chemicals worth $2.4 trillion annually, equivalent to half the U.S. Gross National Product [1,2].
期刊介绍:
Catalysis Reviews is dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary perspectives in catalytic science and engineering, catering to a global audience of industrial and academic researchers. This journal serves as a bridge between the realms of heterogeneous, homogeneous, and bio-catalysis, providing a crucial and critical evaluation of the current state of catalytic science and engineering. Published topics encompass advances in technology and theory, engineering and chemical aspects of catalytic reactions, reactor design, computer models, analytical tools, and statistical evaluations.
