Various methods are employed to test catalyst stability, including:
Accelerated Aging Tests: Subjecting the catalyst to extreme conditions to simulate long-term use. Cyclic Tests: Repeatedly exposing the catalyst to reaction conditions and regeneration cycles. Continuous Flow Reactors: Monitoring performance in a steady-state operation over extended periods. Spectroscopic Techniques: Using X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and other methods to observe structural changes.
