Catalysis is a core area of contemporary science posing major fundamental and conceptual challenges, while being at the heart of the chemical industry--an immensely successful and important part of the overall world economy. Iberoamerican countries represent a major contribution to this fascinating field, with experts working in all areas of catalysis including industrial, heterogenous, homogenous, and computational catalysis, as well as in reaction engineering. Hence, the spirit of this Research Topic is to showcase successful stories of Iberoamerican researchers and their outstanding contributions to the field of catalysis as a cornerstone of social well-being.
In the past 50 years, the influence and scientific output of Iberoamerican scientists have shown a constant and progressive growth in research within the field of catalysis. Being one of the most interdisciplinary fields, catalysis plays a critical role in environmental protection and industrial development in Iberoamerican countries. With an abundance of highly-qualified researchers, in addition to strong collaborations and academic exchanges between Iberoamerican universities and globally renowned scientific institutions, catalysis research in Iberoamerica has turned into a hotspot for the international catalytic field.
The aim of this Research Topic is to increase the visibility and outreach of these novel research ideas in catalysis, displaying articles of research groups working in diverse catalytic areas like homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, sustainability processes and energy applications, reactor engineering, and computational modelling.
We hope that the contributions to this Research Topic will turn into an inspiration for all young Iberoamerican researchers involved in the stimulating field of catalysis.
We welcome Original Research and Review articles on themes including, but not limited to:
• Design, synthesis, characterization, and optimization of catalysts
• Homogenous Catalysis
• Heterogeneous Catalysis
• Computational Catalysis
• Advances in Catalysis for sustainability, energy applications, and environmental applications
• Catalytic Reactors and Reactor Engineering
