Reviews

"The second edition of the Catalyst Handbook . . . has been both rewritten and extended considerably . . . Once again this book should be invaluable, not only to chemical and process engineers but to those researching in the fields of surface science, catalytic chemistry, catalyst design and reactor modelling." --Chemical Engineering Science"A wealth of information on the application of heterogeneous catalysis to certain industrial processes." --The Analyst"The fundamental requirements of good industrial catalysis is quite well explained." --Chemical Engineering Research and Design
