These volumes comprise the proceedings of the major international meeting on catalysis which is held at 4 year intervals. The programme focussed on New Frontiers in Catalysis including nontraditional catalytic materials and environmental catalysis. The contributions cover a wide range of fundamental, applied, industrial and engineering aspects of catalysis. The extensive range of highly efficient industrial techniques for observing and characterizing catalytically important surfaces is evident.The programme covered the following sessions: Mechanism, theory, in situ methods; Catalytic reaction on atomically clean surfaces; Catalytic reaction on zeolites and related substances; New methods and principles for catalyst preparation; Hydrotreatment reactions (HDS, HDN); Characterization of catalysts, application of novel techniques; Selective oxidation; New catalytic aspects of heteropoly acids and related compounds; Reaction of hydrocarbons; Nontraditional catalytic materials; Fuel upgrading; Alkane activation; Acid-base catalysis; New selective catalytic reactons, fine chemicals; Environmental catalysis; Industrial catalysis, deactivation, reactivation; Synthesis from syngas; Electrocatalysis; Photocatalysis.The invited lectures and 433 papers included in these volumes present an update on all areas of catalysis and applications.

Chemical reactor engineering, as a discipline, has a central role to play in helping with the development of adequate strategies and technologies that can deal effectively with the concerns of today's society, which are increasingly becoming attuned to the environment. The current challenge is how to adapt present processes and products to meet more rigorous environmental standards. Chemical Reactor Technology for Environmentally Safe Reactors and Products addresses these issues in three parts: I -- Fuels of the Future and Changing Fuel Needs; II -- Alternative Sources; III -- Emission Control, Chemical Reactor Safety and Engineering. Attention is also paid, throughout the text, to the fundamental technological aspects of reactor engineering and to possible strategies for bridging knowledge gaps.

This text reviews all conversion processes. The reaction mechanisms, the operating conditions and the advantages and disadvantages of each process are carefully analyzed and summarized. Refining flow sheets involving several conversion processes are studied. Concrete results are given and commented upon. The book is designed to help refiners to make technical and economic choices among different processes so as to develop the refining flowsheet that best suits their needs.Contents: I. Processing routes with carbon rejection. General. 1. Physical processes with carbon rejection. 2. Carbon rejecting processes by thermal treatment. II. Resid process without carbon rejection. General. 1. Thermal conversion processes. 2. Catalytic conversion under hydrogen pressure. 3. Resid processing schemes. References.
