Various strategies can be employed to mitigate the formation of surface deposits:
- Feedstock Purification: Removing impurities from the feedstock can reduce the likelihood of deposit formation. - Catalyst Regeneration: Periodic regeneration, such as calcination or gas treatment, can remove deposits and restore catalyst activity. - Catalyst Design: Developing catalysts with higher resistance to deactivation, such as those with more robust active sites or better thermal stability.
