“…The synthesis strategies for mesoporous silica-based materials [44] with improved physicochemical and textural properties and optimised catalytic features are based on the adjustment of the surface functionality by the incorporation of active sites in the silica walls or by the deposition of active species on the inner surface of the material. The incorporation of active sites is possible directly (from mixtures containing both silicon and a hetero-element) or indirectly via post-synthesis procedures using a multitude of pathways.…”

This review article contains a reminder of the fundamentals of heterogeneous catalysis and a description of the main domains of heterogeneous catalysis and main families of metal oxide catalysts, which cover acid-base reactions, selective partial oxidation reactions, total oxidation reactions, depollution, biomass conversion, green chemistry and photocatalysis. Metal oxide catalysts are essential components in most refining and petrochemical processes. These catalysts are also critical to improving environmental quality. This paper attempts to review the major current industrial applications of supported and unsupported metal oxide catalysts. Viewpoints for understanding the catalysts' action are given, while applications and several case studies from academia and industry are given. Emphases are on catalyst description from synthesis to reaction conditions, on main industrial applications in the different domains and on views for the future, mainly regulated by environmental issues. Following a review of the major types of metal oxide catalysts and the processes that use these catalysts, this paper considers current and prospective major applications, where recent advances in the science of metal oxide catalysts have major economic and environmental impacts.

“…Further, their surface functionality can be adjusted by incorporating active sites in the walls of silica or depositing active substances on the inner surface of the materials to synthesize mesoporous silica-based materials with better physicochemical and textural properties and optimized catalytic properties. 26,27 Therefore, some important routes for the preparation of metal oxide solid bases are provided in the following, which also include rare earth oxides and other oxides, while other oxides mainly include loaded oxides and mixed oxides.…”
