Challenges
Societal needs
Developing the basic understanding

Opportunities
Designing at the nano-scale

Challenges I
Dream reactions waiting for a catalyst:

Jens Rostrup-Nielsen: XVII Sympsio Iberoamericano de Catlisis, July 16-21 , 2000

Challenges II
Dreaming on .

Heterogeneous catalysts for assymmetric synthesis


Photolytic water splitting (hydrogen economy)
Biomimetics, synthetic enzymes
Non-thermal processes in general
(e.g. electro- and photocatalysis)

See: E. Derouane, CATTECH 5, 226 (2001)

Challenges III
The science of heterogeneous catalysis:
A comprehensive scientific basis
Much has been done
Much more is needed (oxides, size effects,
photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, relation to
homogeneous and enzyme catalysis )

Making the insight useful!


The ultimate test

Opportunities
- design at the nano-scale
Rational catalyst design
- Discovery on the basis of insight
Data-driven methods
- Accelerated discovery by access to
large amounts of data
Bio-inspired catalysis

Rational catalyst design


1. What determines the catalytic
activity/selectivity/lifetime ?
2. How can we affect it?
- We have tremendous new possibilities

catalysts
The object of the game
Find sets of descriptors {Dik} of solid materials Mi ,
and a mathematical model F such that Aij being the
Turn Over Frequency of Mi as catalyst for the reaction
j at operationg conditions C j one has:

Aij M i , C j F Dik ,C j

Identify ranges of Dik that maximize F


Screen Databases of Materials Properties before
screening real materials
Better if one descriptor is sufficient, but do not take it
for granted
Much better if F has a sound physical basis

Status

Well developed basic understanding theory-experiment


Beginning to be able to use it directly in catalyst design
Some activity-descriptor correlations
Host of new in situ methods for catalyst characterization
New very powerful screening methods
We have a starting point which is radically different from
the situation 5 or 10 years ago!

Moving forward
More basic understanding theory-experiment
Integration of the conceptual framework for
heterogeneous, homogeneous and enzyme catalysis
More systematic data (descriptors)
Better synthesis methods
Better coupling of catalyst design and process engineering
INTEGRATION

Promoting development
An integrated approach:
Experiments, models
Synthesis
testing
characterization
Theory
