About the Catalyst Session

Catalysts are special substances that speed up chemical reactions without undergoing any permanent chemical change themselves. They are used in many industries, such as the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries, to facilitate industrial processes. Recently, nanotechnology has been harnessed to create new and improved catalysts with higher efficiency and selectivity. Nanocatalysts are defined as materials that are composed of nanometer-scale particles, such as nanoparticles, nanoclusters, and nanotubes. These Nanobiotechnology possess unique properties that make them excellent catalysts. For instance, they have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, which means that they can interact with reactants more efficiently and effectively than larger-sized catalysts. Furthermore, their small size allows for better control over reaction conditions, such as temperature and pressure, leading to improved selectivity. Nanocatalysts are used in a variety of applications, including fuel cells, batteries, fuel refining, and chemical synthesis. For example, they can be used to reduce the energy needed to start a reaction, allowing for more efficient chemical processes. They can also be used to reduce the amount of toxic by-products produced, leading to more environmentally friendly processes.
