The benefits of excellent mixing in catalytic processes are numerous:
- Enhanced Reaction Rates: Faster diffusion of reactants to catalyst sites. - Improved Selectivity: Better control over reaction pathways, minimizing unwanted byproducts. - Heat Management: Uniform temperature distribution prevents hotspots and thermal degradation. - Scalability: Easier transition from lab-scale to industrial-scale processes with predictable performance. - Cost Efficiency: Reduced energy consumption and lower catalyst deactivation rates.
