Some of tomorrow's catalysts for processing renewable and non-renewable feedstocks, diminishing anthropogenic carbon dioxide and increasing the production of energy
Abstract:A wide-ranging overview is presented of the likely impact that heterogeneous catalytic systems will play in tackling some critically important societal and environmental issues in the future.
“…In Erb's work, Rubisco chemistry figures eminently: Rubisco is D-ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/ oxyglucose. This is a member of the carboxylase family of enzymes-see Thomas and Harris [5] for more details. Rubisco chemistry has also influenced the recent, ingenious work of Kanan et al [15,16].…”

“…There are, however, many more factors to outline in addition to those contained in Ref [5]. Three particular issues are considered here: catalytic cracking; the generation of bio-oil from renewable feedstocks; and the emergence of a new class of heterogeneous catalysts, i.e.…”

“…Moreover, even before presenting my KOPRC talk at Oxford, I had reviewed in detail the many facets that arise in considering how humankind is going to cope with powering the planet in an environmentally responsible manner in the next 50 years and beyond-see, for example, Refs. [1][2][3][4][5]. See also the definitive review by Centi and co-workers [6] published in 2015, and references therein.…”
Until recently the drive to discover and utilize renewable feedstocks for the production of energy and for the manufacture of materials was exceptionally strong.
