Journal of Catalyst & Catalysis

Journal of Catalyst & Catalysis

Journal of Catalyst & Catalysis [2349-4344(e)] is a peer-reviewed open-access journal of engineering and scientific journals launched in 2014 which publishes original research articles and review articles related to all aspects of catalysts. This Journal provides an indispensable source of information for chemists in Industrial and academic fields.

The journal welcomes contributions across the following topic areas:

• Homogeneous Catalysis: transition metal-catalyzed reactions, cross-coupling reactions (nickel, palladium, copper), enantioselective catalysis, catalytic hydrogenation, carbonylation, and oxidation reactions, ligand design and catalyst optimization
• Heterogeneous Catalysis: supported metal catalysts, metal oxides and mixed oxides, zeolites and porous materials, catalyst synthesis and characterization, catalytic activity and selectivity, and industrial heterogeneous catalytic processes
• Green Catalysis & Biomass Valorization: biomass conversion and valorization, renewable feedstocks, environmentally benign catalytic processes, waste reduction, green solvent systems, and sustainable chemical synthesis
• Catalyst Deactivation & Inhibition: catalyst poisoning and sintering mechanisms, deactivation pathways, catalyst regeneration strategies, inhibitor and promoter effects, and catalyst lifetime prediction
• Mechanistic Studies: reaction mechanisms and kinetics, transition state analysis, molecular-level understanding of catalytic processes, experimental and computational investigations, and structure-activity relationships
• Electrocatalysis & Photoelectrocatalysis: electrocatalytic water splitting, oxygen reduction and hydrogen evolution reactions, CO₂ reduction and conversion, fuel cell catalysis, photocatalytic processes, and light-driven catalysis
• Enzyme Catalysis & Biocatalysis: enzyme immobilization and stabilization, enzyme engineering and directed evolution, biotransformations and bioconversions, multi-enzymatic cascade reactions, and bioreactor design and optimization
• Metal Complexes & Coordination Catalysis: inorganic metal complexes, coordination chemistry in catalysis, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), supramolecular catalysts, and host-guest catalytic systems
• Adsorption & Catalytic Processes: adsorption-driven catalysis, catalyst support effects, surface-adsorbate interactions, adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics, and modulation of catalytic performance through adsorption
• Industrial Catalytic Processes: hydroprocessing and hydrodesulfurization, alcohol synthesis, methanol-to-hydrocarbons conversion, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, oxidative processes, and refinery and chemical engineering applications
• Environmental & Wastewater Treatment: catalytic degradation of pollutants, dye removal and detoxification, wastewater treatment using catalysts, air purification catalysis, and removal of persistent organic pollutants
• Computational Catalysis & Molecular Modeling: density functional theory (DFT) calculations of catalytic processes, ab-initio molecular dynamics, machine learning for catalyst design, transition state modeling, and predictive catalysis
• Nanomaterials & Nanostructured Catalysts: nanoparticles and nanostructures as catalysts, carbon nanotubes and graphene-based catalysts, size and shape effects on catalytic performance, and nanostructured composite catalysts
