CHEG 470 Industrial Catalysis
The course presents basic concepts of catalysis and reviews different categories of catalysts with industrial importance in energy, environment, oil and gas processing as well as in petrochemical and other chemical commodities manufacturing. The core of the course is focused on heterogeneous catalysis and to a lesser extent on homogeneous catalysis. Catalytic materials, their properties and preparation, catalyst characterization and selection, adsorption and surface reaction mechanisms, and catalytic reactor design are covered.
