How is Catalysis Research Approved for Industrial Use?
Approval for industrial use involves several stages:
Proof of Concept: Initial experiments demonstrate the feasibility of the catalyst in a laboratory setting. Scale-Up: The process is scaled up from the laboratory to a pilot plant to assess its practicality and efficiency on a larger scale. Regulatory Approval: Compliance with regulatory standards is verified, often involving rigorous testing and documentation. Commercialization: Once approved, the catalyst can be used in full-scale industrial processes.
