Parallel Heterogeneous Reactor Systems for Catalyst Screening

摘要

Parallel approaches (Combinatorial / High Throughput) for testing of heterogeneous catalysts provides significant opportunities for more rapidly evaluating complex catalyst systems. An overview of a number of reported systems for parallel screening has been considered in terms of the extent to which such units approximate the capabilities of conventional reactor set-ups. This has highlighted the challenges of screening large arrays of catalyst samples while maximising the degree and detail to which the performance of the samples can be evaluated.
