Several strategies can be employed to mitigate mass transfer limitations: - Increasing Agitation or Flow Rates: Enhancing the movement of reactants in the system can improve external mass transfer. - Optimizing Catalyst Design: Using catalysts with tailored pore structures can alleviate internal mass transfer constraints. - Operating at Higher Temperatures: Higher temperatures can increase diffusivity, thereby improving mass transfer rates. - Reducing Catalyst Particle Size: Smaller particles reduce the distance reactants must travel within the pores, enhancing internal mass transfer.
