What is it about?
This article reviews design and engineering of low cost catalyst based on Moroccan natural clay with appropriate texture and chemical composition containing mainly aluminosilicates as well as mixture of minerals. The clay enables easy extrusion as honeycomb monolith and related advantages which may help moving ahead towards industrial application. Of interest also, the possibility of tuning the catalytic behavior through incorporation of appropriate active phases and promoters
