This course provides the knowledge about the catalytic activity in any chemical reaction and the need of a catalyst and its working mechanism and types. The different methods of preparing catalysts are also discussed with emphasis on some industrially important catalysts.
At the end of the course, the participants will be able to;
- Having an understanding of the theory of Catalysts.
- Describe nature of catalytic components, such as supports, active materials and promoters.
- Treat with the design and construction catalyst deactivation and regeneration.
- Characterizations of Catalysts by gas phase reactions (Fixed bed reactor), examples.
- Introduction to catalysis, Catalysis in industries, selection an appropriate catalyst.
- Preparation of catalysts.
- Characterization of Catalyst properties.
- Test catalytic performance.
- Applications of catalyst.
- Preparation of Catalyst.
- Evaluate the performance of a catalyst.
- Perform the regeneration of catalyst.
- Process engineers.
- Laboratory supervisors.
- Laboratory technicians.
