ACS Catalysis
Encyclopedia
ACS Catalysis will be an online monthly, peer-reviewed
scientific journal
covering original research on heterogeneous catalysis
, homogeneous catalysis, and bio-catalysis. Application coverage of the journal will include life sciences, drug discovery & development, household products, polymer
discovery and production, environmental protection, and energy and fuels.
The editor in chief
of ACS Catalysis is Christopher W. Jones (School of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering and School of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Georgia Institute of Technology
). The journal was established in 2011.
