Starting with the invention of Döbereiner's tinder box and reaching importance with Haber's development of ammonia synthesis, heterogeneous catalysis has become a multi-billion dollar business of huge industrial importance and still a major topic of research. Now in 8 volumes, the completely revised and expanded second edition of this much-cited handbook collates this knowledge, providing easy-to-find yet comprehensive information. The new edition contains some 80% more material and takes into account the latest developments, making it still the most up-to-date compendium in heterogeneous catalysis. More than 300 leading experts -- a veritable "Who's Who" in catalysis -- have contributed to this unrivalled masterpiece, covering all aspects from the physico-chemical foundations to large-scale industrial applications. From the contents: * Preparation of Solid Catalysts * Characterization of Solid Catalysts * Model Systems * Elementary Steps and Mechanisms * Kinetics and Transport Processes * Deactivation and Regeneration * Special Catalytic Systems * Laboratory Reactors * Reaction Engineering * Environmental Catalysis * Inorganic Reactions * Energy-related Catalysis * Organic Reactions With its straightforward presentation, this is an essential and indispensable tool for every scientist working in this area.
