| Review: |
This book comprises two separate volumes each printed as a separate book. This is a reference manual which covers acido-basic catalysis, specialising in hydrocarbon conversions. The strategic importance of catalysis for hydrocarbon conversions was realised by the IFP (Institut Francais du Petrole) who have published this manual. They have developed their expertise over 50 years to become an international player in the commercial processes and catalysts in refining and petrochemistry. Reactional and mechanistic characteristics of hydrocarbon conversions are covered in this manual. Also the industrial application of these characteristics is covered to examine the choice and features of the processed used. |
