Several factors influence heat transfer in catalytic processes, including:
Thermal conductivity of the catalyst and support materials: Higher thermal conductivity materials facilitate better heat transfer. Reactor design: Optimized reactor designs can enhance heat distribution and remove excess heat efficiently. Flow rate of reactants: High flow rates can aid in the removal of excess heat but might also reduce contact time. Exothermic or endothermic nature of the reaction: The nature of the reaction determines whether heat needs to be added or removed.
