What are the Challenges in Cost Control for Catalysis?
Several challenges exist in maintaining cost control:
1. Raw Material Fluctuations: The prices of raw materials, especially precious metals, can be volatile. 2. Technological Limitations: Some cost-control methods may not be applicable to all types of catalytic processes. 3. Environmental Regulations: Compliance with environmental regulations can add to operational costs, although they also drive innovation in greener, more sustainable catalysts.
