Eco-Catalysis in Modern Chemistry delves into the innovative methodologies and applications of catalysis that promote sustainability in chemical processes. Participants will engage in hands-on projects that highlight the importance of eco-friendly catalysts in reducing environmental impact while enhancing reaction efficiency. The course emphasizes practical experience, encouraging participants to publish their findings in Cademix Magazine, thereby contributing to the broader scientific community.
The curriculum is structured to provide a comprehensive understanding of eco-catalysis, covering both theoretical foundations and practical applications. Participants will explore various types of catalysts, reaction mechanisms, and the role of catalysis in green chemistry. The final project will require learners to design and implement an eco-catalytic process, presenting their results and insights. This course is tailored for individuals seeking to deepen their expertise in catalysis while addressing modern environmental challenges.
