Catal­y­sis Soci­ety of Japan will orga­nize this meet­ing as a con­tin­u­a­tion of TOCAT (1990), TOCAT2 (1994), TOCAT3 (1998), TOCAT4 (2002), TOCAT5 (2006) and TOCAT6/APCAT5 (2010). The past six TOCAT con­fer­ences have earned a good rep­u­ta­tion as a new series of inter­na­tion­al con­fer­ences on catal­y­sis that has sig­nif­i­cant­ly filled the gap between research and tech­nol­o­gy in catal­y­sis.
 
Scope
Stim­u­lat­ing clos­er ties between acad­e­mia and indus­try and encour­ag­ing young researchers in the field of catal­y­sis are the cen­tral con­cept of this con­fer­ence. This con­fer­ence sould great­ly con­tribute to exchang­ing new ideas and tech­nolo­gies and pro­mot­ing devel­op­ments of new out­stand­ing cat­a­lysts and sys­tems under the scope that catal­y­sis is a high­ly and eager­ly demand­ed tech­nol­o­gy in indus­tries and for sus­tain­able soci­ety and dri­ves inno­va­tion in many oth­er fields.

Papers on the fol­low­ing top­ics are wel­come.
