What are the Types of Catalysts Used in Energy Solutions?
Catalysts used in energy applications can be broadly classified into homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts. Homogeneous catalysts are in the same phase as the reactants, often used in liquid-phase reactions. Heterogeneous catalysts exist in a different phase, typically solids that facilitate gas or liquid-phase reactions. Enzymatic catalysts are a special category used in bioenergy applications.
