Several types of sensors are commonly used in catalytic applications:
- Temperature Sensors: Measure the temperature within reactors to ensure optimal conditions. - Pressure Sensors: Monitor the pressure to maintain safe and effective reaction environments. - Gas Sensors: Detect and quantify the presence of various gases, which is vital for reactions involving gaseous reactants or products. - Flow Sensors: Measure the flow rates of reactants and products to ensure proper mixing and reaction kinetics.
