Several strategies can enhance the durability of catalytic materials:
Material Selection: Choosing materials with inherent stability, such as noble metals or metal oxides. Support Materials: Using robust support materials like alumina or silica to enhance mechanical strength and dispersion of active sites. Promoters and Inhibitors: Adding substances that either enhance activity and stability or prevent deactivation. Protective Coatings: Applying coatings to shield the catalyst from harsh environments. Regeneration Techniques: Developing methods to restore catalyst activity, such as thermal treatments or chemical washing.
