What are Some Practical Applications Where High Humidity is a Concern?
High humidity is a concern in various practical applications. In automotive exhaust treatment, for example, catalysts used in catalytic converters must operate efficiently under varying humidity conditions. Similarly, in fuel cells, the presence of water is essential for proton conduction, but excess humidity can lead to flooding and reduced performance. In the chemical industry, many processes that involve gas-phase reactions must account for the effects of humidity on catalyst activity and selectivity.
