Catalyst Deactivation 1994 was an expansion of earlier, highly successful symposia. The objective of the symposium was to promote a scientific approach of the phenomenon of catalyst deactivation which will contribute to the development of catalysts which are less subject to structural transformations and more resistant to poisons and coke formation. These aspects are dealt with in 12 plenary lectures, 48 oral presentations and 35 poster papers, which were critically selected from an impressive response from some 30 countries. Both fundamental and applied aspects were covered. The deactivation

Microbial utilization of the inexhaustible lignocellulosic biomass for the production of industrial chemicals, liquid fuels, protein-rich feed and food, and preparation of cellulose polymers, is an attractive approach to help meet energy and food demands. Whilst biomass has served as substrate in microbial processes for the production of alcoholic beverages for a long time, it is only recently that broad applications of this material have been envisaged. Hemicellulose-derived sugars have many potential uses in the production of industrial chemicals and solvents. Considerable developments have

This volume summarises and reviews the enormous progress made over the past two decades in solid acids and bases, with emphasis on fundamental aspects and chemical principles. In recent years many new kinds of solid acids and bases have been found and synthesized. The surface properties (in particular, acidic and basic properties) and the structures of the new solids have been clarified by newly developed measurement methods using modern instruments and techniques. The characterized solid acids and bases have been applied as catalysts for diversified reactions, many good correlations being obt

Hardbound. Volume XXXVII in this renowned series presents six articles describing theoretical and experimental research of current interest in optics.The first article is a review of some of the important applications of the Wigner distribution function in optics and optoelectronics. This is useful in the characterization of optical systems and beams, in the coupling between light sources and waveguides, and in nonlinear and ultrafast optics. Although the article focuses on the theoretical aspects, numerical simulations and experiments are also discussed.The second article examines the mathema

This volume on lipobiology contains 27 chapters dealing with a selected number of subjects of lipid homeostasis in the eukaryotic cells and mammalian body. It focuses on subjects in the field of lipobiology characterised by new insights in underlying regulatory mechanisms. Special attention is paid to proteins involved in lipid transfer and enzymes in lipid metabolism and the regulation of expression of genes encoding for lipid handling proteins.
