How to evaluate the performance of catalysts
Thread Content
Are there any relevant **standards** that can be used to evaluate the performance of a new catalyst?
Where there are products, there are standards! There are no **standards**; manufacturing companies must establish their own standards, and only after they pass the approval process can they start production!
High conversion rate, good selectivity, long service life
The standards for catalysts are largely established by the industry, and some products exhibit problems when used in different environments. If a company wants to understand, compare, and assess the quality of catalysts, there are many methods and parameters available, such as the pile ratio, porosity, content of major components, and experimental data obtained under simulated conditions. To conduct quantitative assessments, it is possible to commission professional agencies to carry out the analysis.
It is difficult to standardize things, as different manufacturers use different raw materials and catalysts. Catalyst manufacturers select a certain catalyst as needed and make fine adjustments. In fact, for many devices, the catalysts used may be of the same model, but their formulations differ.
