What are the Benefits of Using Nanotechnology in Environmental Catalysis?
The use of nanotechnology in environmental catalysis offers several benefits, including:
Higher efficiency: Nanocatalysts provide higher reaction rates due to their increased surface area and active sites. Selectivity: Nanoscale catalysts can be engineered to target specific pollutants, increasing the selectivity of the catalytic process. Energy savings: Many nanocatalytic processes can operate at lower temperatures and pressures, reducing energy consumption.
