24. Detailed studies towards heat and mass transport parameters are of great importance to fully understand the performance of this concept. These facts, however, are beyond the scope of this study and will be discussed later in a separate technical report.

26. The increase in reaction rate might be partly caused by the lower partial CO pressure, since rhodium-phosphine complexes show a small negative order in CO: P. W. N. M. van Leeuwen, C. Claver, Rhodium Catalyzed Hydroformylation, Kluwer Academic Publishers: Netherlands, 2000, pp. 63-105.
27. It was observed that catalyst performance improved significantly when the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature before starting a novel catalytic cycle. For this purpose we added a 24 h induction period to the catalysis procedure (see experimental section). In some cases a further extension of the induction period led to a further increase in catalyst selectivity.
