[13-18 July 2008]


The Congress will continue its established role of providing participants with information about accomplishments in catalysis research and catalytic technologies required for the sustainable development of the future society.

Scope of the Congress

  •  Innovations in catalyst design
  •  New findings in reaction mechanism
  •  Catalysis in energy/fuel production
  • Catalysis for fine chemicals/industrial chemicals production
  • Sustainable green catalysis
