Explore the state-of-the-art in heterogeneous catalysis In Heterogeneous Catalysis for
Sustainable Energy a team of distinguished researchers delivers a comprehensive and
cutting-edge treatment of recent advancements in energy-related catalytic reactions and
processes in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. The book includes extensive coverage of the
hydrogen economy methane activation methanol-to-hydrocarbons carbon dioxide conversion and
biomass conversion methane activation. The authors explore different aspects of the technology
like reaction mechanisms catalyst synthesis and the commercial status of the reactions. The
book also includes: * A thorough introduction to the hydrogen economy including hydrogen
production the reforming of oxygen-containing chemicals and advances in Fischer-Tropsch
Synthesis * Comprehensive explorations of methane activation including steam and dry reforming
of methane and methane activation over zeolite catalysts * Practical discussions of alkane
activation including cracking of hydrocarbons to light olefins and catalytic dehydrogenation
of light alkanes In-depth examinations of zeolite catalysis and carbon dioxide as C1 building
block Perfect for catalytic physical and surface chemists Heterogeneous Catalysis for
Sustainable Energy also belongs in the libraries of materials scientists with an interest in
energy-related reactions and processes in the field of heterogeneous catalysis.
