| Abstract: |
This chapter contains a brief reference of the basic principles and concepts of catalysis, such as activation energy of a reaction, activity, selectivity and deactivation/stability of catalysts. The main types of catalysis are also described, i.e. homogeneous, heterogeneous and bio-catalysis, as well as their main disadvantages and advantages. Nanocatalysis, photocatalysis and their applications are also briefly described. The aim of this chapter is not to delve into synthesis issues and characterization of materials, catalytic reaction mechanisms and related industrial processes but the connection of catalysis with the principles and philosophy of "Green Chemistry" and sustainable development.
