Environmental Catalysis

• Automotive emission control
• Water pollution mitigation
• Air pollution control
• Waste utilization

Environmental catalysis is a multidisciplinary research field for which more and more chemists, materials scientists, as well as environmentalists have dedicated their efforts working in this field because of the rich potentials in improving human health and life quality. With the progress in controllable materials synthesis, advanced characterizations, high-level analytical chemistry, together with the computational studies, catalysis proceeds to be the driving force for the generation of clean energy, reduction of major pollutants in air and water, and meantime the theories behind the catalytic reactions are explained. In the current Research Topic, an artistic collection of original research and review articles describing the integration of high-performance catalysts, their applications in different catalytic technologies for environmental indemnification, and associated theoretical calculations for understanding the catalytic mechanisms is performed.
