There are several strategies to make catalytic systems extensible:
Modular Design: Creating catalysts with interchangeable components allows for easy updates and modifications without a complete redesign. Hybrid Catalysts: Combining different types of catalysts (e.g., homogeneous and heterogeneous) to leverage the strengths of each. Functionalization: Adding specific functional groups to catalysts to enhance their properties or enable new reactions. Nanostructuring: Using nanoscale materials to provide higher surface areas and unique properties that can be tuned for different applications. Computational Modeling: Using simulations to predict how modifications will affect catalytic performance, thus guiding the design of extensible catalysts.
