What are Some Applications of Ceramics in Catalysis?
Ceramics find applications in a broad range of catalytic processes:
- Environmental Catalysis: Used in catalytic converters and air purification. - Chemical Synthesis: Employed in the production of chemicals and pharmaceuticals. - Energy Production: Utilized in fuel cells and hydrogen production. - Photocatalysis: Ceramics like titania are used for water splitting and pollutant degradation. - Biocatalysis: Ceramic supports are used for immobilizing enzymes in biocatalytic processes.
