Description
To leave our planet liveable in the next millennium mankind is forced to find environmentally friendly ways in solving the problems of
everyday life. Among others, technologies of producing chemicals, absolutely necessary for maintaining a comfortable life, have to be
modified, in some instances fundamentally changed now, or in the very near future.
Developing new technologies requires strong and
innovative fundamental research. In order to provide opportunity for crossfertilization the Federation of European Zeolite Associations
(FEZA) decided to organise a conference, where researchers from academia as well as industry can meet, exchange ideas, show and discuss
research efforts and results concerning the development of environmentally friendly processes and technologies.
The conference, and
thus the proceedings are divided into two main parts. The first part contains works concerning the synthesis, modification and characterisation
of zeolitic materials as catalyst candidates in environmentally friendly technologies. Works in the second part describe various applications
starting from developing highly selective reactions for the fine chemical industry, through waste-water treatment to applying zeolite
for formulating bacteria for pest control.
Included in series
Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis
Audience:
For chemists and environmentalists concerned with research into production of environmentally friendly processes and technologies.
