Advanced Monitoring Systems Modern catalytic processes often employ advanced monitoring systems that provide real-time data on temperature, pressure, concentration, and pH. These systems can automatically adjust the reaction parameters to maintain optimal conditions.
Reactor Design The design of the reactor can significantly influence the ability to control reaction conditions. For example, continuous flow reactors provide better control over reaction parameters compared to batch reactors. Advanced designs also incorporate features like heat exchangers and pressure regulators to maintain stable conditions.
Use of Additives Additives can be used to stabilize the reactants, intermediates, or catalyst itself, thereby enhancing control over the reaction conditions. For instance, buffer solutions can be used to maintain a stable pH in enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
