Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is my very special privilege to welcome you to the ‘11th Edition of International Conference on Catalysis, Chemical Engineering and Technology (CCT 2022)’.

Being active in the field of (homogeneous) catalysis let me express my sincere admiration regarding the marvelous results achieved during the past decades.  After an unbelievable expansion in the last half of a century, catalysis reached the stage of general application even in synthetic organic chemistry. The recognition of the bonding properties in the catalytically active species, the mechanistic understanding of the basic catalytic reactions, as well as the definition of the scope and limitations have rendered many of the catalytic reactions the most efficient solution to practical problems.  Among others, neither the synthesis of pharmaceutcals nor the application of environmentally benign methodologies can be realised. without the recent achievements in catalysis. .

I am convinced that CCT2022 will provide exciting opportunities to meet different competences and establish new scientific contacts. Welcome and enjoy the meeting!

On behalf of the organizing committee I would like to welcome you to the 11th Edition of International Conference on Catalysis, Chemical Engineering and Technology (CCT 2022). The years 2020 and 2021 have been difficult in terms of “stay at home” restrictions with limited travel globally. Thus the 2020 edition was postponed and the 2021 edition was held online. We are confident that the 2022 edition will be held in person and re-establish the personal contacts of such international gatherings which could not be done in 2021. Just to outline the theme of Catalysis and Chemical Engineering which represent a very promising marriage between the two fields, the objective is to develop novel economic and environmentally friendly industrial processes. Thus, the adjective sustainable appears more appropriate for novel industrial processes, for which both economic and environmental aspects have to be considered, minimizing contamination such as the use of chemical processes in aqueous solutions, use of clean energy sources such as solar emission, and atom economy such as in catalysis if we want to remove relevant drawbacks of some current processes, preserving the added value and having real application perspectives. To achieve this goal, a multidisciplinary approach is necessary to be able to revise critically existing literature methods and develop new ideas fostering collaborations to focus on novel scientific venues. From this point of view, CCT 2022 represents an exciting opportunity for chemists and related scientific disciplines to be exposed to different non-classical and novel research areas in order to achieve these objectives.

Ladies and Gentlemen “welcome on board” of the 11^th Edition of International Conference on Catalysis, Chemical Engineering and Technology  (CCT 2022). It is an honor and a pleasure to send you a short welcome address, just to underline how Catalysis and Chemical Engineering represent a very promising marriage to develop novel economic and environmentally friendly industrial processes, especially for post-COVID-19 and carbon-neutral economy. Aiming at creating changes in energy technologies and chemicals manufacturing, new materials, catalysis, and chemical engineering process are urgently required to be innovated to defossilize, decarbonize and decentralize present chemical industry. To achieve this goal, a multidisciplinary approach is necessary to be able to revised critically the existing literature and develop new idea and collaborations focused to open new scientific courses. From this point of view CCT 2022 represent an exciting opportunity to meet different competences and establish contacts focused to develop new research collaborations. Thus, welcome and enjoy the Meeting!
