← ScienceWhich consequence results when catalyst saturation occurs in biodiesel production?
A)Reaction equilibrium shifts to reactants✓
B)Increased fatty acid methyl esters
C)Higher glycerol conversion efficiency
D)Reduced temperature of reactants needed
💡 Explanation
Catalyst saturation leads to fewer available active sites, thus slowing the reaction rate which prevents the system from reaching equilibrium rapidly and reduces the overall yield. Because the reaction struggles to reach completion, the equilibrium shifts towards the reactants, rather than forming products efficiently.
