Administrative History

The North American Catalysis Society (1956- ) is a federation of local and regional clubs and societies dedicated to the growth and development of the science of catalysis.

The North Amer­i­can Catal­y­sis Soci­ety was founded in 1956 to pro­mote and encour­age the growth and devel­op­ment of the sci­ence of catal­y­sis and those sci­en­tific dis­ci­plines ancil­lary thereto; to pro­vide edu­ca­tional ser­vices to mem­bers and other inter­ested indi­vid­u­als; to orga­nize and par­tic­i­pate in pro­fes­sional meet­ings of sci­en­tists; to report, dis­cuss and exchange infor­ma­tion and view­points in the field of catal­y­sis; to serve as a cen­tral exchange for the sev­eral catal­y­sis clubs con­cern­ing infor­ma­tion on their activ­i­ties; and to pro­vide liai­son with for­eign catal­y­sis soci­eties, with the Inter­na­tional Con­gress on Catal­y­sis, and with other sci­en­tific orga­ni­za­tions and individuals. It was founded by former UC Berkley Chemical Engineering professor Heinz Heinemann and first met together in a national meeting in Atlantic City consisting of university Chemical Engineering professors and Oil Company executives in 1969.
