Preventing catalyst degradation requires careful consideration of operating conditions, catalyst selection, and process optimization. Maintaining optimal operating conditions such as temperature, pressure, and reactant purity can help minimize thermal stress and poisoning. Selecting catalysts with high thermal stability and resistance to sintering can also enhance longevity. Process optimization, including the use of protective coatings or additives, can further mitigate degradation. Regular monitoring and maintenance are essential to detect early signs of degradation and take corrective actions promptly.
