The data in Table 9.2 showthat catalysts based on POL-TPP exhibit roughly the same catalytic performance as the TPP system. (In Ref. [21], systems are also documented in which the POL-based catalysts exhibit better performance.) Especially important is the robustness of these properties when the catalysts are recycled. The results from [21] would suggest that it is possible to reuse the catalyst several times with no adverse effects on performance. However, as far as we know, there have been no results published from long-term tests in continuously operating mini-plants.
