Despite the higher initial costs, the long-term benefits of catalysis can be substantial:
Efficiency: Catalysts can greatly increase the efficiency of chemical reactions, leading to higher yields and reduced waste. Cost Savings: Over time, the efficiency gains and reduced raw material usage can result in significant cost savings. Sustainability: Catalytic processes often have a lower environmental impact, aligning with sustainability goals and regulations. Reusability: Since catalysts are not consumed in the reaction, they can be used repeatedly, further offsetting the initial investment.
