What Courses are Typically Included in a Catalysis Program?
A comprehensive catalysis program usually includes a mix of theoretical and practical courses. Key subjects often covered are:
- Kinetics and Mechanisms of Catalytic Reactions: Understanding the fundamental principles behind how reactions occur and how catalysts influence these reactions. - Materials for Catalysis: Study of various materials used as catalysts, including metals, oxides, and zeolites. - Catalytic Process Engineering: Designing and optimizing industrial catalytic processes. - Environmental Catalysis: Application of catalysis in environmental protection, such as emission control and waste treatment. - Computational Catalysis: Using computational methods to model and predict catalytic behavior.
