Homogeneous catalysis refers to a catalysis in which the reactants and the catalyst are in the same phase, that is, they are all solids, liquids or gases. 
Example:
           
                                   NO(g)
(2 SO2 (g) + O2(g)  --------------->       2 SO3 (g)

   
Heterogenous catalysis, on the other hand, is a catalysis in which the reactants and the catalyst are in the same phase of matter.                                
                                   Pt(s)
 2 SO2 (g) + O2(g)    --------------->                2 SO3 (g)
