What are the Types of Catalysts Used in Pollution Control?
There are several types of catalysts used in pollution control:
Heterogeneous Catalysts: These catalysts are in a different phase than the reactants, usually solid catalysts with gaseous reactants. They are widely used in industrial processes. Homogeneous Catalysts: These catalysts are in the same phase as the reactants, typically liquids. They are used in specific applications where precise control is needed. Biocatalysts: These are natural catalysts, such as enzymes, which are used in processes like wastewater treatment and bioremediation.
