← ScienceWhich outcome results when catalyst fines foul an industrial reactor's equilibrium?
A)Reduced reactant conversion percentage✓
B)Increased reaction kinetic energy
C)Higher reactor thermal runaway
D)Lower product energy barrier
💡 Explanation
Reduced percentage conversion occurs because catalyst fouling decreases available surface area, disrupting equilibrium via mass transfer limitations, therefore equilibrium shifts towards reactants rather than efficient product formation because of reduced mass action activity.
