What are the Applications of Spectral Deconvolution in Catalysis?
Spectral deconvolution has a wide range of applications in catalysis:
- Identifying Active Sites: Helps in pinpointing the exact locations on the catalyst where reactions occur. - Studying Reaction Mechanisms: Allows for the identification of intermediates and transition states, providing insights into the reaction pathway. - Catalyst Development: Aids in the design and optimization of new catalysts by providing detailed information on their composition and behavior. - Environmental Catalysis: Used in analyzing catalysts for pollution control, such as those used in automotive exhaust systems and industrial emissions.
