It would not be an exaggeration to claim that almost all commercially produced chemical products are a result of a catalytic process. Given the socio-economic impact of catalysis, IIT Hyderabad has a diverse team of researchers working on cutting edge technologies in this area. The applications of this research span fuel cells, clean technologies, DNA repair, to name a few.
