Catalysis plays a significant role in improving the catalytic processes to enhance efficiency of chemical transformations by reducing wastes. The research on catalysis con-temporarily emerged as one of the pioneered research in modern chemistry. In the last few years, nanocatalysis has become an emerging area of science and technology owing to their exceptional potential effects in catalysis and selectivity. On the nano-level, the nanostructured materials possessed different size, which rendered different surface area, that conveys the exclusive assets to nanocatalysts compared to their bulk counterpart. In this chapter, we emphasise on the fundamental understanding of different nanocatalysts and how they catalyse catalytic reactions.
