Kinetics of Catalytic Reactions
Albert Vannice
The field of catalysis, especially heterogeneous catalysis, involves the utilization of knowledge from various disciplines, including chemical engineering, chemistry, physics, and materials science. After more than two decades of teaching a graduate course in catalysis, whose membership was comprised primarily of students from the above programs, and consulting with numerous industrial researchers, it became apparent to me that a book would be useful that focused on the proper acquisition, evaluation and reporting of rate data in addition to the derivation and verification of rate equations based on reaction models associated with both uniform and nonuniform surfaces. Such a book should familiarize and provide its reader with enough background information to feel comfortable in measuring and modeling heterogeneous catalytic reactions. For a single individual to attempt such an undertaking is almost a guarantee that some issues will be addressed less adequately than others; regardless, I hope that these latter topics will meetminimum standards! My goal is a text that will be self-contained and will provide a convenience for the practitioner in catalysis.
