Setting the foundation for new advances in heterogeneous catalysis

The use of carbon materials in heterogeneous catalysis offers many potential benefits, including unparalleled flexibility in tailoring catalyst properties to meet specific needs. This book promotes technological advances in the field by establishing the state of the art, identifying areas where more research is needed, and advocating for more systematic approaches. Readers gain a better understanding of the chemistry of carbon surfaces, helping them design new catalysts. Moreover, they gain new insights into improving quality control and production methods in order to produce high-performance materials.

With contributions by a team of leading experts from industry and academia, the book pulls together and explains the significance of the most recent research findings. Each of the fifteen chapters has been carefully edited to ensure a consistent and thorough approach throughout. Among the key topics covered are:
Preparation and characterization of carbon supports and carbon-supported catalysts
The role of carbon surface chemistry in catalysis, including molecular simulations
Catalytic, photocatalytic, and electrocatalytic reactions
Carbon materials as supports for fuel cell electrocatalysts
The development of new carbon materials, such as carbon xerogels, aerogels, and carbon nanotubes
Carbon-supported catalysts for the chemical industry

References at the end of each chapter guide readers to the primary literature, where they can explore each topic in greater depth. This unique book brings researchers fully up to date with the latest advances, supporting their efforts to develop new carbon materials and fully exploit their potential in catalysis.
