What are the Challenges in Achieving Fuel Flexibility?
While the concept is appealing, several challenges must be addressed:
Catalyst Deactivation: Different fuels can lead to the formation of deposits or poisons that deactivate catalysts over time. Reaction Conditions: Optimal conditions such as temperature and pressure can vary significantly between different fuels, requiring adaptable catalytic systems. Economic Viability: Developing and deploying flexible catalytic systems can be costly, and the economic benefits must justify the investment.
