Better Way To Design Catalysts

July 29, 2013
Approach offers insights on how to improve catalyst performance.
A study by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Trieste and Brookhaven National Laboratory has shown a way to precisely design the active elements of a certain class of catalysts, showing which parameters are most critical for improving performance.This highly controlled process could be a new paradigm for fine-tuning catalysts used in everything from making new materials to environmental remediation.    Read the full article.
