Description This volume contains peer-reviewed manuscripts describing the scientific and technological advances presented at the 6th Natural
Gas Conversion Sumposium held in Alaska in June 2001. This symposium continues the tradition of excellence and the status as the premier
technical meeting in this area established by previous meetings.
The 6th Natural Gas Conversion Symposium is conducted under
the overall direction of the Organizing Committee. The Program Committee was responsible for the review, selection, editing of most
of the manuscripts included in this volum. A standing International Advisory Board has ensured the effective long-term planning and
the continuity and technical excellence of these meetings.
Audience
For chemical engineers, physical chemists, and catalysis scientists interested in the most up-to-date developments in the field of natural gas conversion.
