A wide range of processes and technologies can make use of heterogeneous catalysts. Examples are [[pyrolysis]], hydro-processing, [[oxidation]], amination, dehydration, [[hydrolysis]], (trans)esterification, and isomerisation.<ref name=":1" /> The most common heterogeneous catalysts are heterogeneous solid base catalysts and heterogeneous solid acid catalysts. Base catalysts have a high concentration of basic sites that ensures the catalytic activity, often from Ba, Ca, Mg, and Sr and can be mixed or doped. Soap formation is a recurring drawback of these systems. Acid catalysts get their activity either from Brønsted or Lewis acidity and are commonly zirconia, silica, zeolites or zeotype materials. Major advantages of heterogeneous catalysis is the ease of separation, recyclability and high selectivity.<ref name=":0" /> Current development for future heterogeneous catalytic systems are in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), magnetic catalysts, and solid phase ionic liquids.<ref name=":1" /> | A wide range of processes and technologies can make use of heterogeneous catalysts.
