Catalyst Material Science explores how advanced materials can address environmental pollution through sustainable technologies.
It delves into the crucial role of surface chemistry in catalyst design, particularly how noble metals like platinum and palladium interact with pollutants at a molecular level to drive contaminant conversion.
Understanding these interactions is key to creating effective catalysts for environmental remediation, such as converting harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into less damaging substances.
The book uniquely combines fundamental scientific principles with practical applications, showcasing real-world solutions for environmental problems.
It progresses from introducing basic concepts like catalyst characterization and reaction kinetics to examining specific noble metals and their uses.
Finally, the book highlights innovative technologies for pollution control, offering a comprehensive view of catalyst material science and its potential impact.
