Heterogeneous Catalyst Deactivation and Regeneration: A Review

Deactivation of heterogeneous catalysts is a ubiquitous problem that causes loss of catalytic rate with time. This review on deactivation and regeneration of heterogeneous catalysts classifies deactivation by type (chemical, thermal, and mechanical) and by mechanism (poisoning, fouling, thermal degradation, vapor formation, vapor-solid and solid-solid reactions, and attrition/crushing). The key...

Stem cells and regeneration: a special issue.

Welcome to Development’s special issue on stem cells and regeneration. Developmental biology as a field is undergoing profound transformations. The sequencing of genomes has allowed us to move away from single-gene studies and to focus on a more global understanding of the gene regulatory networks underlying development. Modern imaging techniques now allow the precise quantification of developm...

Catalyst deactivation

The fundamentals of catalyst deactivation are presented in this review. The chemico-physical aspects concerning the various deactivation causes (i.e. poisoning, sintering, coking, solid-state transformation, masking, etc.) have been analyzed and discussed, along with the mathematical description of the deactivation phenomena. # 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
