The performance of a catalytic reaction is highly dependent on the precise control of operating conditions. Control valves impact catalytic reactions in several ways:
Flow Rate: Regulating the flow rate of reactants ensures that the catalyst is exposed to the optimal concentration of reactants. Pressure: Maintaining the appropriate pressure is essential for reactions occurring in the gas phase or those requiring high-pressure conditions. Temperature: Temperature control is critical as it influences the rate of reaction and the stability of the catalyst.
