program

The submission of papers describing original experimental and/or theoretical research in all areas of heterogeneous/homogeneous catalysis and materials is invited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
 

Catalysis, Materials, and Reaction Engineering for Environmental Protection
Mobile/stationary source emissions control
Photo- & electrocatalysis for emissions control
CO2 capture, conversion, or sequestration
Clean feedstocks and fuels (HDN, HDS)
VOC and groundwater remediation

Catalysis, Materials, and Reaction Engineering for Industrial Chemicals
Commodity chemicals and polymers
Specialty or fine chemicals and polymers
Acid-base, partial oxidation, hydrogenation, organometallic
Non-petrochemical feedstocks or green/alternative processes

Catalysis, Materials, and Reaction Engineering for Fuel Production/Utilization
Syngas and H2 production
Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and gas-to-liquids
Fuel cells and electrolysis
Photochemical and electrochemical synthesis
Biomass conversion to fuels

Emerging Issues: Novel Materials, Theory, and Experimental Methods
Novel materials for catalysis, energy conversion, energy storage
Novel approaches to materials synthesis
Computational catalysis
Nano-structured materials and clusters for structure-property investigation
Biomimetic catalysis
Advanced characterization techniques (ex situ, in situ, or operando)
Photo- or microwave-assisted catalysis
Reactions with unconventional media (supercritical fluids, ionic liquids, novel solvents)
Advanced reactor technologies (multifunctional, structured, microchannel)

 

Final acceptance and notification of oral or poster presentation will be conditional on the confirmed registration of at least one submission author.
