Both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts and catalytic processes will be discussed in a unified and comprehensive approach. There will be extensive cross-referencing within all volumes. The use of solar energy during various catalytic chemical processes for the production of an array of chemical products is the theme of this volume.PhotocatalysisPhotocatalysis.660.2995Suib Steven L.1953-MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910779992003321New and future developments in catalysis3680356UNINA
