Session: Advances in Industrial Reaction Engineering and Catalysis

This session, consisting of both invited and submitted papers from industrial presenters, will drive visibility on the practical application of reaction engineering and catalysis expertise to industrially relevant problems. The division leadership wishes to promote and enhance industrial membership participation in section 20 sessions as well as to develop a forum in which faculty and graduate researchers can learn about the practical, industrial application of the fundamentals they develop and practice. The session will focus on the myriad of broad applications of reaction engineering and catalysis technology within industry. For 2017, the session also includes papers from academic and industrial presenters addressing the engineering aspects of catalysts/catalytic supports at the nanoscale.
