Despite the advancements, catalyst research faces several challenges:
- Durability and Stability: Developing catalysts that remain active over extended periods and under harsh conditions is a significant challenge.
- Selectivity: Achieving high selectivity for desired products while minimizing by-products is crucial for efficient catalytic processes.
- Scalability: Translating laboratory-scale catalysts to industrial-scale applications involves overcoming issues related to cost, availability of materials, and process integration.
