Katalysatorer är viktiga komponenter i den kemiska industrin. Deras användning tillåter kemiska processer att ske på ett ekonomiskt och miljövänligt sätt, förutsatt att de är stabila och har bra aktivitet i den kemiska miljön där de tillämpas. Ett viktigt steg vid implementeringen av nya kemiska processer är alltså att utveckla lämpliga katalysatorer. Processen att utveckla sådana kan vara väldigtEstablishing a technically practical method to generate representative model catalysts for the use in characterizations and testing prior to catalyst implementation in chemical process units would allow for a more sophisticated understanding of the underlying catalytic mechanisms.
