The 2nd International Electronic Conference on Catalysis Sciences—A Celebration of Catalysts 10th Anniversary

Online | 15–30 October 2021

Keith Hohn, Miami University, USA

Cover Story: The 2nd International Electronic Conference on Catalysis Sciences (ECCS) was held both to encourage collaboration and interaction between catalysis researchers and to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the founding of Catalysts. Towards the first goal, researchers shared their latest research results and received near-instant feedback through online question and answer sessions, discussion groups, and live webinars. While a variety of topics were covered, particular attention was paid to catalytic materials, environmental catalysis, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, nanostructured catalysts, biocatalysis, biomass catalysis, catalysis in organic and polymer chemistry, and computational catalysis. This collection represents a number of the outstanding contributions to this conference.
