What are the Challenges Associated with Monolith Reactors?
Despite their numerous advantages, monolith reactors face certain challenges: - Catalyst Loading: Ensuring a uniform and stable coating of the catalyst on the monolith structure can be challenging. - Mass Transfer Limitations: In some cases, the mass transfer limitations within the channels can affect the overall reaction efficiency. - Thermal Management: Efficient heat distribution and management are crucial to prevent hot spots and ensure uniform reaction conditions. - Cost: The initial cost of manufacturing monolith reactors can be higher compared to traditional catalytic reactors.
