Riassunto

Catalysts,heterogeneous,homogeneous,andenzyme,areusuallynanoparticles.These areofvitalforthefunctioningofthehumanbody,forphotosynthesis,andforproducing fuels and chemicals in the petroleum and chemical industries. Interest in nanoscience and in nanotechnology in recent years has focused attention on the opportunity to develop catalysts that exhibit 100% selectivity for a desired product, thus removing byproducts and eliminating waste. This type of selective process is often called green chemistry or green technology. This book is the third Volume of Nanotechnology in Catalysis. It is mainly based on the symposium on Nanotechnology in Catalysis III which was held in fall 2004 at th the ACS 228 National Meeting in Philadelphia, PA. Several chapters were also from the authors who did not attend the symposium. We invited a few experts in the ?eld to write on a topic which we see is needed to make the book comprehensive. It has been about 2 years since Volumes 1 and 2 were published. Many new c- tributions and breakthroughs have been made by researchers worldwide, showing the dynamics in the area of nanotechnology in catalysis.

Su questo libro

Dalla quarta di copertina

This book is the third volume of Nanotechnology in Catalysis. Although has been only 2 years since the Volumes 1 and 2 were published, many new contributions and breakthroughs have been made by researchers all over the world, showing the dynamic of nanotechnology in catalysis area. The topics in the book are the most up-to-date information on the forefront of nanotechnology development in catalysis field. They include the new concept and applications of nanotechnology for catalysis, the preparation and characterization of nanoparticle and nanostructure catalysts, and the examples of the superior activity and selectivity achieved by using such nanocatalysts. This book provides an in-depth understanding of how nanotechnology can affect the future generation of catalyst development.

This book is beneficial to a broad range of readers. It can be used as a textbook by professors and students for graduate or undergraduate curriculum. The advanced nanoscience and nanotechnology concepts are written in a textbook style to facilitate the readers who are new to this fascinating area. Researchers and engineers in industry may gain ideas on how nanoparticles and nanostructured materials can be made for and applied to industrial processes. Government officials may consult the book for understanding the new concepts and applications of nanomaterials.
