Stan Golunski, Deputy Director of the Cardiff Catalysis Institute (formerly Technology Manager of Gas Phase Catalysis at the Johnson Matthey Technology Centre, Sonning Common, U.K), suggests a selection of book and journal references to introduce catalysis to people with a background of chemistry or chemical engineering.

The books give an introduction to industrial applied catalysis and the review articles introduce emission control catalysis.
