Abstract

Gary L. Haller, research professor of chemical and environmental engineering at Yale School of Engineering & Applied Science, is the recipient of the 2016 North American Catalysis Society Award for Distinguished Service in the Advancement of Catalysis. Haller is investigating a variety of catalysts based on structured carbon supports, specifically on single- and multiwalled carbon nanotubes. He is trying to understand how these supports influence the reactivity of dispersed metal particles and how structure affects the behavior of acid sites in oxides.The $5,000 award is presented every two years to recognize an individual who has advanced catalytic chemistry or engineering through significant service to the catalysis community and outstanding technical accomplishments.
