What Are the Challenges Associated with Biometric Catalysts?
Despite their advantages, biometric catalysts face several challenges: - Stability: Many enzymes are sensitive to environmental conditions and can lose activity over time or under harsh reaction conditions. - Scalability: Mass production and integration into large-scale industrial processes can be challenging for biomimetic systems. - Cost: The synthesis and purification of enzymes and biomimetic catalysts can be expensive, potentially limiting their commercial application.
