Addressing challenges in catalysis requires a multidisciplinary approach. Key challenges include the development of catalysts that are both highly active and stable, as well as the ability to operate under industrial conditions. Researchers are focusing on the design of heterogeneous catalysts which are easier to separate from reaction mixtures and can be reused. Advances in computational catalysis are also crucial, as they allow for the simulation and prediction of catalytic behavior, reducing the need for extensive experimental testing.
