    Catalytic systems can be classified as either heterogeneous or homogeneous. Heterogeneous catalysis makes up 80% of catalytic systems and involves reactants in different phases, with gases or liquids reacting on the surface of a solid catalyst. Homogeneous catalysis accounts for 17% of systems and occurs when reactants and catalysts are in the same liquid phase. Biocatalysis involves biological catalysts and makes up the remaining 3% of catalytic systems. Adsorption is a surface reaction where molecules attach to the surface of a solid adsorbent, differing from absorption which involves one substance being taken up by another.

    What is catalysis?

    Classification of catalytic systems

    Heterogeneous catalysis (80 wt.-%)


    The reactants and the catalyst are present in different phases:
     reactants: gas or liquid phase
     catalyst: solid phase
    The catalytic reactions happen at the surface of the solid.

    Homogeneous catalysis (17 %) and biocatalysis (3 %)


    The reactants and the catalyst are present in the same phase : liquid phase.
    The catalyst is a solute of the system.

    What is catalysis? Surface reactions
    Difference between absorption and adsorption

     An adsorption is a surface reaction


    The solid is the adsorbent The molecule is the adsorbate
