How are catalysts being tailored for specific applications?
The customization of catalysts for specific applications is a growing trend. For instance, in the pharmaceutical industry, chiral catalysts are designed to produce enantiomerically pure compounds, which are crucial for drug efficacy and safety. In the energy sector, catalysts are being developed for efficient hydrogen production and fuel cells. Environmental applications include catalysts for carbon dioxide reduction and the removal of pollutants from air and water.
