Accountability is crucial in catalysis for several reasons:
Scientific integrity: Ensuring that the research findings are accurate, reliable, and reproducible. Public trust: Maintaining the trust of the public, funding agencies, and policymakers. Safety: Preventing accidents and ensuring the well-being of researchers and the public. Environmental impact: Reducing the ecological footprint of catalytic processes and promoting sustainability. Ethical standards: Upholding ethical practices in research and development.
