CARLA

Here, at CaRLa, an international team consisting of eight postgraduate scientists, a PhD student (computational chemistry) and a technician are working together to investigate basic research issues and industrial applications in the field of homogeneous catalysis... CaRLa aims to build up an efficient network between academia and industry to facilitate transfer of knowledge between the two partners and to develop new homogeneous catalysts with application potential within industry... Catalysis represents the most important general technology of industrial chemistry. More than 80 percent of all chemical products come into contact with catalysts at least once during their synthesis. High-performance catalysts have huge environmental and economic benefits. They help to significantly reduce the feedstock needs and energy consumption used for chemical processes while producing fewer by-products and waste; they open up new, more cost-effective ways of manufacturing established products and..
