Catalyst testing can be performed using various methods to simulate different reaction conditions. Some of the common methods include:
- Batch Reactors: Simple and versatile, used for small-scale testing. - Continuous Flow Reactors: Provide steady-state conditions and are suitable for industrial applications. - Fixed-Bed Reactors: Used for gas-phase reactions and heterogeneous catalysis. - Stirred Tank Reactors: Ideal for liquid-phase reactions and homogeneous catalysis.
