Membrane materials are integral to catalytic processes for several reasons:
Enhanced Selectivity: Membranes can selectively allow certain reactants or products to pass through while blocking others, thus improving the selectivity of the catalytic process. Improved Efficiency: Membranes can facilitate the continuous removal of products from the reaction zone, driving the reaction towards completion. Energy Savings: By enabling low-temperature operations, membrane-based catalytic processes can significantly reduce energy consumption.
