Contains the presentations and discussions that took place during a symposium at the CIBA Foundation on October 1-3, 1990 on the subject of catalytic antibodies.

This volume concentrates on catalysis in biochemical environments, giving new perspectives to previous research, current developments and future directions.

This is the first comprehensive book covering all aspects of the use of carbonaceous materials in heterogeneous catalysis.

Provides a clear and systematic description of the key role played by catalyst reactant dynamism including: (i) the fundamental processes at work, (ii) the origin of its general and physical features, (iii) the way it has evolved, and (iv) how it relates to catalysis in man-made systems.

A compilation of recent advances and applications in asymmetric catalysis The field of asymmetric catalysis has grown rapidly and plays a key role in drug discovery and pharmaceuticals.

A cutting-edge science book in the style of 'Fermat's Last Theorem' and 'Chaos' from an exciting and accessible voice in popular science writing.

Heterogeneous catalysis and mathematical modeling are essential components of the continuing search for better utilization of raw materials and energy, with reduced impact on the environment.

In this thesis, applications of aminoacylation ribozymes named flexizymes are described.

Industrial Biofouling discusses the the challenges--and to a lesser extent, the benefits--of biofilms on industrial processing surfaces.

Since 1948, this series has bridged the gap between the papers that report and the textbooks that teach in the diverse areas of catalysis research.

Evolution is nature's most fascinating process, the possibility given sufficient time to combine simple inorganic compounds to more and more complex biochemical compounds, which make up more and more complex organisms.

During the past 30 years, the field of alkene polymerization over transition metal catalysts underwent several major changes:1.

This book is devoted to CO2 capture and utilization (CCU) from a green, biotechnological and economic perspective, and presents the potential of, and the bottlenecks and breakthroughs in converting a stable molecule such as CO2 into specialty chemicals and materials or energy-rich compounds.

Coal is more abundant than petroleum and natural gas.

In spite of the energy crises and the recession, there has been a global, explosive growth in the amount of motor vehicles.

Practical Guide to Surface Science and Spectroscopy provides a practical introduction to surface science as well as describes the basic analytical techniques that researchers use to understand what occurs at the surfaces of materials and at their interfaces.

Since 1948, this series has filled the gap between the papers that report on and the textbooks that teach in the diverse areas of catalysis research.

Advances in Inorganic Chemistry Volume 58 focuses on homogeneous biomimetic oxidation catalysis.
