         <title>Wachs chosen to receive Olah Award</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<img alt="IEW%20Lab%20Pic.jpg" src="http://www.che.lehigh.edu/blog/IEW%20Lab%20Pic.jpg" width="250" height="167" class=floatRight>

<strong><em>He was cited for contributions over the past 30 years to the field of catalysis.</em></strong>

Israel Wachs, the G. Whitney Snyder Professor of chemical engineering and a world-renowned expert in catalysis, has been chosen by the American Chemical Society to receive the George A. Olah Award in Hydrocarbon or Petroleum Chemistry.

The award will be presented by ACS’s Division of Petroleum Chemistry at the society’s Spring 2008 national meeting in New Orleans.

Wachs is the second consecutive member of the Lehigh faculty to win the Olah Award. Bruce Koel, professor of chemistry and vice provost for research, won the award in 2007. George Olah is the 1994 Nobel laureate in chemistry. 

Wachs was cited for contributions over the past 30 years to the field of catalysis, which is the study of the process in which a chemical agent is employed to bring about or accelerate a chemical reaction.
