What are the Challenges in Testing and Validation?
Several challenges can arise during the testing and validation of catalysts:
Reproducibility: Ensuring that results are consistent across different experiments and scales. Deactivation: Catalysts can lose activity over time due to fouling, sintering, or poisoning. Selectivity: Achieving high selectivity towards the desired product while minimizing by-products. Scalability: Ensuring that the catalyst performs well not only in the lab but also in industrial-scale applications.
