In the field of applied catalysis multiscale development is a modern comprehensive approach. It means that during process development problems occurring at different scales, for example, from the nanometer to meter scale, have to be addressed simultaneously and solved. As discussed by L. Mleczko and G. Lolli in their Minireview on page 9372 ff. on the development of industrial carbon nanotube production, it is an interdisciplinary approach requiring methods from kinetic studies to fluid dynamics to reactor engineering.
