Cyclic tests typically follow these steps: 1. Initial Reaction Cycle: The catalyst is exposed to the reactants under specific conditions, and the reaction is carried out to obtain the desired products. 2. Product Removal: The reaction mixture is separated to isolate the products from the catalyst. 3. Catalyst Regeneration: The catalyst is subjected to a regeneration process, which may involve thermal treatment, chemical washing, or other methods to restore its activity. 4. Subsequent Cycles: Steps 1-3 are repeated multiple times to observe changes in catalyst performance.
