The chemical or biological process whereby the presence of an external compound, a catalyst, serves as an agent to cause a chemical reaction to occur or to improve reaction performance without altering the external compound. Catalysis is a very important process from an industrial point of view since the production of most industrially important chemicals involve catalysis. Research into catalysis is a major field in applied science, and involves many fields of chemistry and physics. The book brings together leading research in this vibrant field.

Preface; Application of Plasma-Catalyst Hybrid Processes for the Control of NOx and Volatile Organic Compounds; Hydrotalcites as Potential Catalysts for Hydroxylation of Phenol; Cluster Model Approach in Catalysis Research; Recent Inquiries into the Mechanisms of Metal-salen Catalysed Asymmetric Oxidations; Utilisation of Methane in the Catalytic Methylation of Aromatics and Coal Liquefaction Over Zeolite Catalysts; Transient Reaction Analysis of an Automotive Catalyst on a Millisecond Time Scale; Index.
