Giovanni Palmisano is a Professor of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at the Khalifa University, United Arab Emirates, where he leads research activities mostly focussed on photocatalysis. In Khalifa University he has developed and taught PhD level courses on heterogeneous catalysis and heterogeneous photocatalysis for the past 10 years. He has been main advisor of 9 PhD and MSc students and, overall, he has 15 years of experience in photo- and electro-catalytic processes. His current research activities are mainly focused on photocatalysis applied to water, environment, materials functionalization, energy and organic chemistry. He is co-author of ca. 110 highly cited journal papers, seven patents, six books and six book chapters. He is associate editor of the Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering and reviewing editor of Frontiers in Chemistry among others. Affiliations and expertise

Heterogeneous Catalysis: Fundamentals, Engineering and Characterizations provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of heterogenous catalysis, including thermodynamic and kinetic aspects, adsorption mechanisms, catalytic reactors and catalyst characterization, with an introduction to sustainable catalysis. Representing a reference source for students and researchers working in this rapidly advancing field, the text reflects the many facets of the discipline, linking fundamental concepts with their applications. Beginning with a step-by-step look at the thermodynamics and energetics of catalysis, from basic concepts to the more complex aspects, the book goes on to cover reaction engineering and modeling, ending with sustainable catalysis and characterization techniques typically used for solid catalysts.Including presentation slides to support research and learning as well as aid quick understanding of the key concepts, this book will be of interest to postgraduate students and researchers working in chemical engineering, chemistry and materials science as well as industrial researchers. - Includes an accompanying presentation slides aid for easy understanding of key concepts- Covers the modeling of catalytic reactors and sustainable catalysis- Includes adsorption/desorption thermodynamics and kinetics- Details characterization techniques for the assessment of textural, structural, morphological, optical and chemical properties of the catalysts
