Variations in the Activity Maximum with Reaction Conditions

2 VARIATIONS IN THE ACTIVITY MAXIMUM WITH REACTION CONDITIONS 

Ammonia synthesis is an example of a process where activation of the reactant (N ) is rate determining for the most interesting catalysts. In that process, iron is the optimal catalyst far from equilibrium, but once the last part of the reactor bed is reached and y l, ruthenium, which is more noble (and more expensive), has been
