The project will provide support for graduate student participation in the 18th International Congress on Catalysis (ICC) to be held in Lyon, France, July 14-19, 2024. Specifically, the funding will partially cover registration and travel expenses of approximately 20 U.S. academic Ph.D and postdoctoral students to attend the Congress and facilitate their interactions with the international catalysis community. The critical importance of catalysis is reflected by the fact that 25-30% of all manufactured goods in the United States involve catalysis in their process chemistry. The students will present their research at the conference, attend lectures by leaders in the field, and interact with fellow students from around the world. Proceedings of the ICC will be published openly on the web and will constitute a significant part of the archival literature on catalysis.The ICC meeting is the largest global meeting dedicated to catalysis, and is held once every four years. The Congress was last held in the United States in 1996. The goal of the 18th ICC is to provide a vision for future catalysis research as guided by the past but focused on challenges that lie ahead. The program will highlight recent developments, challenges, and opportunities in the context of critical shifts from fossil-fuel based energy and feedstocks to sustainable energy and renewable feedstocks as needed to address carbon emissions and related climate impacts. To that end, explosive developments are occurring in the field related to analytical tools, catalyst synthesis, experimental techniques, computational methods spanning molecular to process scales, and advances in data science. The scientific program will include plenary and keynote lectures, invited and contributed papers, and poster presentations covering all of those aspects. Furthermore, the International Congress is a rare opportunity for U.S. students to interact with fellow students and premier researchers from across the world at the most prestigious conference the catalysis community has to offer. This will significantly assist with maintaining U.S. research competitiveness, while also inspiring students to tackle grand challenges related to catalytic processes. Catalysis is an enabling technology for a broad range of scientific and engineering impact areas related to environmental pollution control, sustainability, energy, and net-zero-carbon chemical manufacturing. Student training and engagement in these areas ensures a future cohort of catalytic researchers well-positioned to make continued advances to science and engineering that will serve the needs of the Nation and the global community for years to come.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将为研究生参加第18届国际催化国际大会（ICC）提供支持，该大会于2024年7月14日至19日在法国里昂举行。具体来说，资金将部分涵盖约20个美国学术博士学位的注册和旅行费用，并大约有20个学术博士学位，并提供了大约20个学术博士学位和博士后学生，以参加国会并与国际猫分解社区互动。 催化的重要性反映了以下事实：美国所有制造商品中有25-30％涉及其工艺化学中的催化。 学生将在会议上展示他们的研究，参加该领域领导者的讲座，并与来自世界各地的同学互动。 ICC的会议记录将在网络上公开发布，并将构成有关催化的档案文献的重要组成部分。ICC会议是致力于催化的最大全球会议，并且每四年举行一次。国会最后一次于1996年在美国举行。第18个ICC的目标是为未来的催化研究提供了愿景，但该研究由过去的指导，但专注于未来的挑战。 该计划将在从基于化石燃料的能源和原料到可持续能源和可再生原料的关键转变的背景下重点介绍最近的发展，挑战和机遇，以解决碳排放和相关气候影响。 为此，在与分析工具，催化剂合成，实验技术，跨越分子到过程量表的计算方法以及数据科学的进步有关的领域中正在发生爆炸性发展。 科学计划将包括全体会议和主题演讲，被邀请和贡献论文以及涵盖所有这些方面的海报演示文稿。 此外，国际大会是美国学生在最负盛名的会议上与来自世界各地的同学和高级研究人员互动的难得的机会。这将大大有助于维持美国的研究竞争力，同时还激发学生应对与催化过程有关的巨大挑战。催化是一项具有与环境污染控制，可持续性，能源和净零碳化学制造有关的广泛科学和工程影响领域的促成技术。在这些领域的学生培训和参与度确保了未来的催化研究人员的群体群体，以继续努力，以继续发展科学和工程学，这些奖项将在未来几年内满足国家和全球社区的需求。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并认为通过基金会的知识分子和更广泛的影响，可以通过评估来进行评估。
