La catalyse peut être subdivisée en catalyse homogène, dans laquelle tous les réactifs ainsi que le catalyseur sont dispersés d'une façon moléculaire dans une phase, et la catalyse hétérogène ou catalyse de surface, dans laquelle la réaction se produit à une interface entre les phases. 2, record 1, French, - catalyse%20homog%C3%A8ne

On distingue deux sortes de catalyse homogène : la catalyse acide-basique [...] et la catalyse de coordination. 3, record 1, French, - catalyse%20homog%C3%A8ne
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Dans la catalyse homogène la vitesse de réaction croît souvent proportionnellement à la concentration en catalyseur. Lorsque ce sont les produits mêmes d'une réaction qui l'accélèrent, ou dit qu'il y a autocatalyse; la vitesse de réaction, très faible au départ, croît, passe par un maximum avant de tendre vers zéro, la disparition des corps réactifs n'étant plus compensée par l'accroissement de concentration du catalyseur. 4, record 1, French, - catalyse%20homog%C3%A8ne

The Aquaconversion technology is an extended catalytic visbreaking process in the presence of steam. The old visbreaking technology is limited in conversion level because of the stability of the resulting product.... The Aquaconversion process pushes this maximum conversion level within the stability specification by adding a homogeneous catalyst in the presence of steam. This novel catalytic system allows hydrogen from the water to be transferred to the resid when contacted in a coil-soaker system normally used for the visbreaking process. 2, record 2, English, - aquaconversion
