Several strategies can be employed to achieve immediate release in catalytic systems. Here are a few commonly used methods:
Nanocatalysts: These have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, which facilitates quicker interaction with reactants and rapid product formation. Homogeneous Catalysis: This involves catalysts that are in the same phase as the reactants, typically leading to faster reaction rates and immediate release of products. Microreactors: These small-scale reactors offer enhanced mass and heat transfer, allowing for quicker reaction times and immediate product release. Enzyme Catalysis: Enzymes can catalyze reactions at very high speeds, often resulting in immediate release of the reaction products.
