What Are Some Examples of Compact Catalytic Systems?
There are several examples of compact catalytic systems that have been successfully implemented:
- Microreactors: These are small-scale reactors that offer high surface area-to-volume ratios, leading to improved heat and mass transfer. - Monolithic Catalysts: These catalysts have a honeycomb structure that provides a large surface area in a compact volume, enhancing catalytic efficiency. - Membrane Reactors: These reactors integrate reaction and separation processes, reducing the overall size and improving efficiency. - Catalytic Converters: Used in automotive applications, these are designed to be compact yet highly efficient in reducing exhaust emissions.
