The present 2nd volume of the EDITION OSTWALD gives a modern vision over the present development of the catalytical research. Contributions of worldwide well-known scientists expose experimental and theoretical progress in heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis, as well as in photo, electro and biocatalysis. Thereby a closely networking between fundamental and applied research is to be seen, which presents such current challenges of the 21st century, as effective climate and environmental protection, efficient energy supply and sustainable
use of resources.
