Catalytic Kinetics unifies the main
sub-disciplines forming the cornerstone of practical catalysis.
This book comprehensively covers all aspects of kinetics and transport phenomena in catalysis and bridges the gaps that exist between hetero-, homo- and bio- catalysis.
Its broad coverage of the catalytic kinetics makes this book a useful and important addition to the scientific literature.
Written by experts in this field, focussing on fundamentals of practicle catalysis Catalytic Kinetics will be of use to all researchers in catalysis and especially chemical engineers as well as students studying advanced courses in catalytic chemistry.
* Provides a broad overview catalytic kinetics.
* bridges the gaps that exist between hetero-, homo- and bio- catalysis
* Written by internationally renowned experts in this field.
Dmitry Murzin is Professor of Chemical Technology at Åbo Akademi University in Turku, Finland, and for the past 10 years he has served as Professor at the Finland University's Laboratory of Industrial Chemistry and Reaction Engineering.
