Heterogeneous catalysis is at the core of chemical manufacturing. The book covers the importance of surfaces, interfaces and nanoscale materials in heterogeneous catalysis. It covers the synthesis of inorganic and nanosized inorganic catalysts and includes green synthesis methods. It describes characterization techniques and discusses challenges and opportunities in the scale up of catalysts production.
