Several strategies can be employed to increase accessibility in catalysis:
Developing low-cost catalysts: Finding cheaper materials that can act as effective catalysts can make catalytic processes more affordable. Simplifying reaction conditions: Designing catalysts that work under mild and easily achievable conditions (e.g., room temperature and atmospheric pressure) can make processes more accessible. Scaling up laboratory processes: Transitioning from small-scale laboratory reactions to industrial-scale processes can make catalytic methods more widely available. Improving catalyst stability: Creating more robust and longer-lasting catalysts can reduce the frequency of replacement and maintenance.
