Abstract

Abstract : In article number 2000095, Micah J. Green, Benjamin A. Wilhite and co‐workers propose a new approach for direct use of sustainable electric energy (solar, wind, nuclear) to drive chemical reactions using modular, intensified, and distributed processes, i.e., in the absence of traditional infrastructure. The reported radio‐frequency responsive novel materials are integrated with conventional catalysts to drive heterogeneous catalytic reactors. This method allows for uniform volumetric and localized heating at competitive efficiencies.
