What are the Challenges in CO Oxidation Catalysis?
Despite its importance, there are several challenges in CO oxidation catalysis:
Catalyst Deactivation: Over time, catalysts can lose their activity due to sintering, poisoning, or fouling. Selectivity: Achieving high selectivity towards CO2 formation without forming unwanted by-products is challenging. Cost: Precious metal catalysts like Pt and Pd are expensive, leading to high operational costs.
