Catalysis

The textbook "Catalysis" by Gadi Rothenberg offers a comprehensive introduction to all aspects of catalysis. It combines theoretical fundamentals with practical applications in industry and green chemistry. With over 600 references and numerous examples as well as practical exercises, the book is aimed at students of chemistry and chemical engineering at the bachelor’s and master’s levels. The second edition, published in 2017, includes current developments in catalysis research and 50 additional exercises based on suggestions from students and educators. The author, a recognized researcher in the field of catalysis, is known for his clear teaching style and was awarded "Lecturer of the Year" by chemistry students. The chapters cover the fundamentals of catalysis as well as the principles and applications of homogeneous, heterogeneous, and biocatalytic catalysis, demonstrating how catalysis contributes to achieving sustainable development goals.
