Catalytic farming: reaction rotation extends catalyst performance (2019)
Journal Article
Elhage, A., Lanterna, A. E., & Scaiano, J. C. (in press). Catalytic farming: reaction rotation extends catalyst performance. Chemical Science, 10(5), 1419-1425. https://doi.org/10.1039/c8sc04188a

The use of heterogeneous catalysis has key advantages compared to its homogeneous counterpart, such as easy catalyst separation and reusability. However, one of the main challenges is to ensure good performance after the first catalytic cycles. Activ... Read More about Catalytic farming: reaction rotation extends catalyst performance.
