Track; not yet
- Why
- Peer-reviewed in Nature Communications with industry (Eastman) backing and real hardware results, but single-chemistry proof and unaddressed scale-up/cost keep it at the watch stage for adopters.
- Next
- Pilot the open Bayesian-optimization methodology on an in-scope homogeneous reaction in existing HTE hardware before investing in a bespoke autonomous reactor build.
