Heterogeneous Catalysis for Energy & Society

Catalysis is a central technology enabling chemical transformations to fuels and chemicals and as such plays a crucial role in our society and its energy production. Energy-heavy processes are heavily dependent on heterogeneous catalysis.

This summer school aims to give the participants a thorough introduction to the fundamental concepts underlying heterogeneous catalytic reactions with a special focus on energy transformations relevant for our current and future society.

Ceria and related materials in catalysis

Following the previous successful three international conferences on the topic held in Udine, Beijing and Barcelona, we are glad to organize the “4th Fundamentals and Applications of Cerium dioxide in Catalysis” at Stanford University and in partnership with the SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis.
