BOOK DESCRIPTION
TABLE OF CONTENTS

Industrial and academic scientists face increasing challenges to find cost-effective and environmentally sound catalysts for a variety of applications. This volume provides a balanced and in-depth review of the modern approaches to some of these challenges covering major areas such as catalysts for green catalytic processes, research and development of hydrocracking catalysts, using nanoclusters as catalysts and preparation of foams.

Tungsten containing materials as heterogeneous catalysts for green catalytic oxidation process; Alumina ceramic foams as catalyst supports; Recent advances in the synthesis and catalytic applications of atomically precise gold nanoclusters; Research and development of hydrocracking catalysts and technology; Titano-silicates: highlights on development, evolution and application in oxidative catalysis; Nanofiber-supported metal-based catalysts; Elucidation of mechanistic and kinetic aspects of water–gas shift reaction on supported Pt and Au catalysts via transient isotopic techniques; Recent progresses on the use of supported bimetallic catalysts for the preferential oxidation of CO (PROX); 3D MoS2/Graphene hybrid layer materials as counter electrodes for dye-sensitized solar cells.
