Ultrasonic Catalysis of Chemical Reactions
EMSL Project ID
3455
Abstract
Using ultrasound, chemical reactions can be enhanced by decreasing activation energy and shifting chemical equilibrium. One specific area that will be focused on is the heterogeneous catalysis of the hydrogenation of alkene solutions. Successful catalysis of solutions of this nature have the potential of being very marketable in several industries.
