Catalysis; Industrial chemistry

Heterogeneous Photocatalysis: Relationships with Heterogeneous Catalysis and Perspectives highlights the differences between thermal-catalysis and photo-catalysis and indicates borderlines, in particular, the possible synergism between them. The book outlines the basic aspect of thermal- and photo-catalysis, along with the most important characterization techniques. In addition, it presents case studies of thermal-catalytic and photo-catalytic or thermal-photo-catalytic reactions and includes a comparison between the results obtained using an inorganic solid as thermal catalyst and photocatalyst for the same reaction, and in the same setup. Final sections offer information on the preparation methods of (photo)catalysts, various techniques used for their characterization, engineering and economical aspects.

This book will be a valuable reference source for students and researchers involved in heterogeneous photocatalysis and catalysis, chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, materials engineering, environment engineering, nanotechnology and green chemistry.

Prof. Eng. Giuseppe Marcì obtained his PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of Palermo. The scientific activity of Prof. Eng. G. Marcì has been mainly focused in the field of heterogeneous photocatalysis with various topics. In particular he is mainly interested in the preparation, characterization, and photocatalytic activity of various kinds of photocatalysts. Prof. Eng. Marcì is a co-author of 106 scientific papers published in national and international journals, 1 patent, and 200 papers in proceedings of national and international congress. Leonardo Palmisano was born in Termini Imerese, Italy, in 1950. He obtained his B.Sc. degree in Chemistry cum laude in 1973 from the University of Palermo. He was a full professor of Chemistry in the Department of Engineering, University of Palermo, since 2000, and although he has now retired, he continues to carry out research. His scientific work mainly focuses on heterogeneous photocatalysis, such as preparation, characterization of many bulk and surface techniques, and testing of various types of bare and doped polycrystalline photocatalysts. He has collaborated with many scientists worldwide, producing joint papers in international journals (~350), many scientific and didactical books, and five patents. He is editorin- chief of the Journal of Photocatalysis and a member of the editorial boards of European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Current Organic Chemistry, International Journal of Photoenergy, Journal of Chemistry, and Journal of Membrane Science & Technology.
