To obtain ethical approval for catalysis research, you generally need to follow these steps:
Prepare a Research Proposal: This should detail your objectives, methodology, potential risks, and how you plan to mitigate them. Submit to an Ethical Review Board: This could be an institutional review board (IRB) or an ethics committee specializing in chemical research. Review and Feedback: The board will review your proposal and may request additional information or modifications. Approval or Rejection: Once all concerns are addressed, the board will either grant approval or reject the proposal.
