Abstract:Catalysis is widely used in industry, where 90% of the industrial processes uses at least one catalyst in the system. Heterogeneous catalysts are most commonly used (80%) compared to homogeneous catalysts (15%) and biocatalysts (5%). A heterogeneous catalyst is a solid surface with active sites to accelerate a reaction without changing the thermodynamic equilibrium, and the reactant is in gas or liquid phase. The reactant is transported to the surface and active site to be able to convert to products. If the r… Show more
