October 2020 - Two doctoral examinations at AD

With catalysts chemical reactions are accelerated and become more efficient in the consumption of energy and resources. They represent the most powerful methodological tool to reduce energy intensity of many industrial processes and reducing their environmental burden. Catalysis is a complex field of science so much data is produced during research handling different kinds of information on a process. To get a better understanding and develop new, better catalysts, a unified view on catalysis is needed. The aim of NFDI4Cat is to provide this unified view. This is to be achieved by an ontology which interconnects different type of data in a machine and human comprehendible way (see figure).
