Interlude I
Enhancing the selectivity in complex reaction schemes may be the biggest challenge on the shoulders of the chemists and chemical engineers. Sustainable production of desired chemicals requires improved material and energy economies. After the conclusion of Chapter 2, it must have been obvious that low selectivity results in wasting valuable raw materials. Additional energy penalties are due in terms of separation costs. Hence, selective manufacture of the desired chemicals is imperative in a world where sustainability is the primary concern.
In this interlude, we will cover some novel approaches toward improved selectivity via the product-removal strategy through recent examples in ...
