How Are Thermal Sensors Integrated into Catalytic Systems?
Thermal sensors can be integrated into catalytic systems in various ways:
1. In-Situ Monitoring: Sensors are placed directly within the reaction environment to monitor temperature changes in real-time. This is crucial for dynamic reactions where temperature fluctuations can impact performance. 2. Surface Monitoring: For heterogeneous catalysis, sensors can be placed on the surface of solid catalysts to measure local temperatures, ensuring uniform heat distribution. 3. Gas-Phase Monitoring: In gas-phase reactions, infrared sensors are often used to measure the temperature of reactant or product gases.
