DESCRIPTION:
In 1993, van Santen was the founding director of the Netherlands Institute of Catalysis and from 2001 to 2005 he was Rector Magnificus of TU/e. He is a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences and a Knight in the order of the Dutch Lion. Rutger Anthony van Santen is professor at the Institute of Molecular Complexity at Eindhoven Technical University (TU/e, The Netherlands). His research interests are in the field of the mo
Written by one of the world's leading experts on the topic, this advanced textbook is the perfect introduction for newcomers to this exciting field. The author also covers various catalytic systems, catalysis by design, and activation-deactivation. Concise and clear, the text focuses on such key aspects as kinetics, reaction mechanism and surface reactivity, concentrating on the essentials. A website with supplementary material offers additional figures, original material and references.
From the Back Cover Written by one of the world's leading experts on the topic, this textbook is the perfect introduction for newcomers to the exciting field of molecular heterogeneous catalysis. Concise and clear, the text focuses on such key aspects as kinetics, reaction mechanism and surface reactivity, concentrating on the essentials. In addition to the introductory parts, the book provides complementary in-depth material presented such that it can be read independently and at an advanced level. The author also covers the chemistry of important catalytic processes and catalytic systems, that are of current use or are promising new developments.
