Dalton Transactions shines the spotlight on catalysis

28 November 2007

Take a look at the Dalton Transactions themed issue 'Emerging Strategies in Catalysis', guest edited by Carmen Claver from University Rovira I Virgili, Tarragona, Spain.

In a world where sustainability is the condition for development, innovation is necessary to substitute old products and processes for new greener ones. Beyond the requirement of new and more efficient chemicals, pharmaceutical products, agrochemicals and material with novel properties, most of the investments will be committed to resolve environmental concerns.  In this context, catalytic technologies clearly still play a major role in enhancing a number of businesses on a worldwide basis. The role of catalysis is key for obtaining energy and products from fossil carbon and other sources through environmental friendly technologies. 

Now published online, Dalton Transactions has gathered together a collection of original contributions from leaders in the catalysis field. This themed issue provides readers with a valuable insight into this interesting and challenging field of chemistry.
