Advanced course in chemical reaction kinetics, basics of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, physical methods of characterizing nanomaterials, industrial-scale catalysis, environmental catalysis, catalysis on an atomic/molecular level
1) Introduction (history of kinetics, nanotechnology and catalysis) 2) Basics of chemical kinetics (reaction rates, methods of measurement, chain reactions, explosions) 3) Collision theory (molecular beams), Eyring (transition state) theory, potential energy surfaces 4) Reactions in solution, photochemical processes 5) Homogeneous catalysis, enzyme kinetics 6) Heterogeneous catalysis (adsorption at surfaces, mechanisms) 7) Industrial-scale catalysis (synthesis gas, ammonia, water-gas shift) 8) Environmental catalysis (air, water treatment) 9) Methods in catalysis research (synthesis, physical-chemical characterization, in situ spectroscopy) 10) Catalysis on an atomic/molecular level
