Carbon-Based catalysis has become one of the burgeoning topics since the 21st century, playing a fundamental role in the development of sustainable heterogeneous catalytic processes. Carbon materials are economic catalytic supports that contribute with green active sites on their own, this is a great potential that can be the driving force for industrialization catalytic processes. The use of non-metal carbon materials as catalyst, leads to entirely different reaction mechanisms has been put forward in comparison with traditional metal-based catalysts. Consequently, Carbon-Based catalytic engineering processes are flourishing, and the comprehension of their related phenomena is of high importance for sustainable industrialization and process development.
This Research Topic aims at collecting the most recent and innovative developments of our fellow researchers working in the field. It will further shed light on the potential use and rapid expansion of carbon-based catalysts.
We welcome the submission of Original Research, Review, Mini Review, and Perspective articles on themes including, but not limited to:
• New types of functionalized carbon materials and carbon-based catalysts
• Carbon-based economic catalytic processes
• Clean conversion of energy source using carbon-based materials
• Emissions reduction using carbon-based materials
• Numerical methods for carbon-based catalytic process modeling
• Characterization of carbon-based catalysts and materials
• Green conversion and catalytic technology of carbon resources
