This long–awaited second edition of the successful introduction to the fundamentals of heterogeneous
catalysis is now completely revised and updated. Written by two top international experts, this textbook includes fundamentals of adsorption, characterizing catalysts and their surfaces, the significance of pore structure and surface area, solid–state and surface chemistry, poisoning, promotion, deactivation and selectivity of catalysts, as well as catalytic process engineering and numerous practical examples. It takes full account of the major advances made since the first edition, and highlights environmentally responsible processes, the use of renewable feedstocks, and new methods of studying and designing solid catalysts.
Gerhard Ertl, Fritz–Haber–Institute, Berlin, Nobel Laureate:
Since many years Thomas & Thomas has been a comprehensive and profound guide to the complex area of heterogeneous catalysis and hence the community was waiting eagerly for the second edition. This is in fact much more than just a thoroughly revised version but rather an elegantly written new book covering the subject from its fundamental principles to its technological aspects, whereby all the important new developments during the last twenty years as well as relations to neighboring disciplines (such as biochemistry, electrochemistry or photochemistry) were taken into account. This work should become a classic and of indispensable value for everybody working in the field.
Jens K. Nørskov, Director, Center for Interface Science and Catalysis, Stanford University:
The Thomas textbook on heterogeneous catalysis provides the reader with an authoritative and comprehensive treatment of the science and technology of the field. The new version is completely updated with the newest developments and the elegant and extremely insightful presentation will capture the reader. It is required reading for anyone in the field, from starting students to practitioners in industry.
Yasuhiro Iwasawa, former President of the Chemical Society of Japan, Emeritus Professor, University of Tokyo:
The Thomas & Thomas has been a bible of the large community of heterogeneous catalysis, providing the scientific and technological compass, comprehensive guidance and profound knowledge of catalysis field as well as related disciplines. The second edition of the Thomas & Thomas with 9 chapters is a thoroughly revised and newly written book, covering diverse but important subjects from both fundamentals and industrial applications, documenting significant developments and historical milestones during the last twenty years, and involving emerging areas. This work should be highly recommended for everybody to have one copy each.
Michel Che, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, Past President of the International Association of Catalyst Societies:
This beautifully written second edition is a pure joy to read and is recommended both to senior university students and the practising researcher and industrialist. It gives the most general view of contemporary heterogeneopus catalysis, at the confluence of the practical and the fundamental and with the incentive of moving faster toward green chemistry, clean technology and sustainability.
