Catalysis…
Catalysis contributes 20-30% of the gross domestic products of industrialized countries. Catalysts play a vital role in the production of transportation fuels, bulk and fine chemicals in a sustainable way. Many more improvements are expected for the next years. Read more »
12 October 2010: NWO Talent Day
NWO organises the Talent Days to provide you information, knowledge and skills you need to develop your secientific career and to give you the opportunity to exchange experiences with other young researchers from a wide range of scientific disciplines.
If you are a researcher at the start of your career - i.e. a PhD or postdoc - then this could be something for you.

General Info: Characterisation in Catalysis Research
NIOK Special Graduate Course on Characterisation in Catalysis Research
NIOK organizes a 3 to 5-day course on the characterization of catalysts at the Eindhoven University of Technology.
The exact date and location are not known yet, though this years’ course will be most likely scheduled for end of October 2010.
Although the emphasis of the course will be on the characterization of industrial heterogeneous catalysts by means of spectroscopy, microscopy and diffraction, some attention will be devoted to important model systems such as singlecrystal surfaces, organometallic complexes and particles on planar supports as well.
The course also covers modern in-situ techniques to study catalysts during catalytic testing. The course will
be taught by a number of experts.
