Institute for Catalysis

Catalysis science is in high demand for building a sustainable society through timely responses to ever-increasing needs for environmental conservation, resources, and energy. The Institute for Catalysis was launched based on the success of the Catalysis Research Center, and our mission is to fulfill this demand and become a global center for catalysis science research. We promote high-level education and joint research to attain our goals.
