Industrial Nanotechnology

Nano catalysis

Exhibiting both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic properties, Nano catalysts allow for rapid and selective chemical transformations, with the benefits of excellent product yield and ease of catalyst separation and recovery. This book reviews the catalytic performance and the synthesis and characterization of Nano catalysts, examining the current state of the art and pointing the way towards new avenues of research. Moreover, the authors discuss new and emerging applications of Nano catalysts and Nano catalysis, from pharmaceuticals to fine chemicals to renewable energy to biotransformation’s.

Nanocatalys is features contributions from leading research groups around the world. These contributions reflect a thorough review of the current literature as well as the authors’ first-hand experience designing and synthesizing Nano catalysts and developing new applications for them. The book’s nineteen chapters offer a broad perspective, covering
