Palermo, March 2014

Dear Colleague,

On behalf of Italy's chemical community we warmly welcome you to Palermo for the “FineCat 2014 - Symposium on heterogeneous catalysis for fine chemicals”, that will be hosted in the splendid Sala delle Capriate of the Steri Palace, hall of Palermo's University Rectorate.

The 2014 Symposium is dedicated to the memory of the late Prof. Vincenzo "Enzo" Romano (1938-2013), eminent Professor of analytical chemistry at the University of Palermo.

Featuring the plenary lectures of eminent chemists David Cole-Hamilton, Serge Kaliaguine, Paolo Fornasiero and José Antonio Lopez-Sanchez, the third FineCat Symposium -- whose idea was born out of the 2011 themed issue of Catalysis Science &Technology dedicated to Prof. Michele Rossi -- hopefully will provide another pleasant learning and networking opportunity among researchers working at the development of solid catalysts for the clean production of fine chemicals.

The scientific program highlights exciting innovation in fields as diverse as new biomass upgrade, new encapsulated metal nanoparticles and visible light photocatalysis.

We hope that the beauty of the Symposium venue and of the 2,700 years old city of Palermo, crossroad of the Phoenician, Roman, Arab and Norman civilizations, will be a pleasant setting for the symposium.

Finally, do not miss the chance to take part in the Symposium’s social program in the Tasca d’Almerita Real Estate. Enjoy the meeting and your stay!

Mario Pagliaro and Leonardo Palmisano

Chairman and Co-Chairman of FineCat 2014
