Catalysis. Volume 30 /

Catalysts are required for a variety of applications and this volume looks at modern approaches to catalysis and critically reviews the extensive literature on areas such as catalysts derived from waste materials and a new tool to explore catalytic reaction mechanisms - the catalytic shock tube.
