  2. Heterogeneous catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneous_catalysis

    Heterogeneous catalysis typically involves solid phase catalysts and gas phase reactants. [2] In this case, there is a cycle of molecular adsorption, reaction, and desorption occurring at the catalyst surface.

  3. Heterogeneous catalytic reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneous_catalytic...

    Heterrogenous catalysis reactor Heterogeneous catalytic reactors put emphasis on catalyst effectiveness factors and the heat and mass transfer implications. Heterogeneous catalytic reactors are among the most commonly utilized chemical reactors in the chemical engineering industry.

  4. Sabatier principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabatier_principle

    In chemistry, the Sabatier principle is a qualitative concept in heterogeneous catalysis named after the French chemist Paul Sabatier. It states that the interactions between the catalyst and the reactants should be "just right"; that is, neither too strong nor too weak. If the interaction is too weak, the molecule will fail to bind to the ...

  5. Catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalysis

    Many heterogeneous catalysts are in fact nanomaterials. Heterogeneous catalysts are typically "supported", which means that the catalyst is dispersed on a second material that enhances the effectiveness or minimizes its cost. Supports prevent or minimize agglomeration and sintering of small catalyst particles, exposing more surface area, thus ...

  6. Photocatalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photocatalysis

    In heterogeneous catalysis the catalyst is in a different phase from the reactants. Heterogeneous photocatalysis is a discipline which includes a large variety of reactions: mild or total oxidations , dehydrogenation , hydrogen transfer, 18 O 2 – 16 O 2 and deuterium-alkane isotopic exchange, metal deposition, water detoxification, and ...

  7. Ziegler–Natta catalyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziegler–Natta_catalyst

    Heterogeneous supported catalysts based on titanium compounds are used in polymerization reactions in combination with cocatalysts, organoaluminum compounds such as triethylaluminium, Al(C 2 H 5) 3. This class of catalyst dominates the industry. [1] Homogeneous catalysts usually based on complexes of the group 4 metals titanium, zirconium or ...

  8. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction

    Solid heterogeneous catalysts are plated on meshes in ceramic catalytic converters in order to maximize their surface area. This exhaust converter is from a Peugeot 106 S2 1100. In catalysis, the reaction does not proceed directly, but through a reaction with a third substance known as catalyst. Although the catalyst takes part in the reaction ...

    C 2 H 2 + H 2 (ads.) → C 2 H 4 on nickel or iron catalysts The Langmuir-Rideal mechanism is often, incorrectly, attributed to Dan Eley as the Eley-Rideal mechanism. [ 5 ] The actual Eley-Rideal mechanism, studied in the thesis of Dan Eley and proposed by Eric Rideal in 1939, was the reaction between a chemisorbed and a physisorbed molecule. [ 6 ]
