Description
It has become a tradition that every four years, the Université Catholique de Louvain and the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven jointly
organize a symposium devoted to the scientific bases for the preparation of heterogeneous catalysts. These meetings bring together researchers
from academia and industry and offer a forum for discussions on the chemistry involved in the preparation of industrial heterogeneous
catalysts.
This volume containing the Proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Scientific Bases for the Preparation of
Heterogeneous Catalysts consists of papers summarizing most of the 139 oral communications and posters selected by the international
scientific committee, composed of 27 experts in the field of catalyst preparation, holding an industrial or academia appointment.
The contributions focus on the aspects of catalyst preparation. The main topics are: new approaches in catalyst preparation; advanced
preparations of nanoporous and mesoporous catalysts; catalysts preparation for special performances and purposes; catalysts for environmental
purposes; and molecular catalysis. Emphasis is put on the role that catalysis can play as an essential element of sustainable development.
