Appearing 20 years after the first edition, the second is substantially new and revised. It deals with the fundamental principles of heterogeneous catalysis through to the plant operation of catalysts for the manufacture of synthesis gas, hydrogen, methanol, ammonia and related products, including formaldehyde and nitric acid. Distributed by CRC. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
This book bridges the gap between theory and practice. It provides fundamental information on heterogeneous catalysis and the practicalities of the catalysts and processes used in producing ammonia, hydrogen and methanol via hydrocarbon steam reforming. It also covers the oxidation reactions in making formaldehyde from methanol, nitric acid from ammonia and sulphuric acid from sulphur dioxide. Designed for use in the chemical industry and by those in teaching, research and the study of industrial catalysts and catalytic processes. Students will also find this book extremely useful for obtaining practical information not available in more conventional textbooks.
