Heterogeneous catalysis and photocatalysis

Summary

The cross-disciplinary subject focused on the interdisciplinary area of ​​heterogeneous catalysis and photocatalysis includes topics focused on heterogeneous catalytic reactions, procedures used in laboratory catalyst research, photocatalytic processes and reactors, photocatalysts, instrumental methods suitable for monitoring the progress of these reactions and methods suitable for catalyst and photocatalyst characterization, including determination of textural parameters. Within the course, specific topics will be selected for detailed study according to the knowledge of the doctoral student and the focus of the dissertation.
