What Role Do Feedstock Purity and Reaction Conditions Play?
The purity of the feedstock and the reaction conditions play a significant role in both cost and maintenance. Impurities in the feedstock can poison the catalyst, leading to more frequent replacements and higher costs. Similarly, extreme reaction conditions can accelerate catalyst deactivation. Therefore, maintaining optimal operating conditions and ensuring high feedstock purity are essential for cost-effective and efficient catalytic processes.
