Dr. Louise Duhamel is a CNRS researcher since 1984, working in the heterogeneous catalysis field. Studying various catalytic reactions such as hydrogenation, isomerization, hydrotreatment, selective oxidation reactions she has proposed some relations existing between the active site structure of the solid and the catalytic orientation. A good knowledge of the behavior of non metallic catalytic systems under hydrogen allowed Dr. L. Duhamel to point out some common important parameters for all these reactions and to propose a modeling of the active sites involving bridged anionic vacancies and reactive hydrogen species of hydridic nature.
