Modern Heterogeneous Oxidation Catalysis

Angebote / Angebote:

Heterogeneous oxidation catalysis is of enormous importance, since it is one of the key reactions in chemistry, especially in industrial chemistry. This technology reduces chemical waste, making reactions much more efficient. Today, more than ever, there is a real need for novel environmentally friendly "green" oxidants, such as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide and others. Filling a gap in the literature, this long-awaited and comprehensive reference presents all important catalyst classes, including metal oxides, polyoxometalates, and zeolites. Readers will find here everything they need to know -- from structure design to characterization, and from immobilization to industrial processes. From the contents: * Concepts in Selective Oxidation of Small Alkane Molecules * Active Ensemble Structures for Selective Oxidation Catalyses at Surfaces * Unique Catalytic Performance of Supported Gold Nanoparticles in Oxidation * Metal-Substituted Zeolites as Heterogeneous Oxidation Catalysts * Design of Well-Defined Active Sites on Crystalline Materials for Liquid-Phase Oxidations * Liquid-Phase Oxidations with Hydrogen Peroxide and Molecular Oxygen Catalyzed by Polyoxometalate-Based Compounds * Nitrous Oxide as an Oxygen Donor in Oxidation Chemistry and Catalysis * Direct Synthesis of Hydrogen Peroxide: Recent Adcances * Recent Achievements and Challenges for a Greener Chemical Industry A true must-have for anyone working in this key technology, whether in academia or industry.
