To reduce the amount of unreacted material, several strategies can be employed:
Optimize reaction conditions: Adjust temperature, pressure, and reactant concentrations to favor higher conversion rates. Improve catalyst design: Develop catalysts with higher activity and selectivity for the desired reaction. Enhance mass transfer: Use better mixing techniques or reactor designs to improve contact between reactants and the catalyst. Ensure catalyst regeneration: Regularly regenerate or replace deactivated catalysts to maintain high activity.
