Heterogeneous catalysis
This book surveys the field of heterogeneous catalysis, and by highlighting a number real industrial processes, shows how to think about the problems involved. Special attention is paid to the physical forms of catalysts used and to the types of reactor employed. Includes a treatment of the band theory of solids. Contents, abridged: Absorption on solid surfaces. Chemisorption at metal surfaces. Catalysis in energy conversion and in the production hydrocarbon feedstock. Oxidation catalysis: the petrochemical industry. Catalysis in the heavy inorganic chemicals industry. Hydrogenation of multiple bonds: the production of margarine, and the fine-chemicals industry. Catalysis in atmospheric pollution control index.
