What are the Consequences of High Temperature Deviations?
High temperature deviations can cause several issues such as: - Catalyst Deactivation: Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to sintering, where catalyst particles agglomerate, losing surface area and activity. - Thermal Runaway: Exothermic reactions can become uncontrollable at high temperatures, leading to safety hazards. - Reduced Selectivity: High temperatures may favor side reactions, producing unwanted by-products.
