Catalytic Reactors: A Review

Mathematical simulation of thermal behavior of moving bed reactors

Temperature distribution is a key function for analyzing and optimizing the thermal behavior of various process equipments. Moving bed reactor (MBR) is one of the high-tech process equipment which tries to improve the process performance and its energy consumption by fluidizing solid particles in a base fluid. In the present study, thermal behavior of MBR has been analyzed through mathematical ...

Fixed Bed Reactors for the Cultivation of Mammalian Cells: Design, Performance and Scale-Up

Fixed-bed reactors have gained growing attention for the cultivation of mammalian cells. They allow for a low shear stress cultivation of adherent and non-adherent cells due to the immobilization of cells within macroporous carriers. Their potential has been demonstrated for many cell culture purposes. Some of the recent developments are presented in this review, including improved antibody pro...

New model for performance prediction in fixed-bed reactors based on the approach of the unused bed zone.

In the present study a practical model useful for designers dealing with pilot scale reactors for pollutant control has been developed. Investigations were undertaken for a single-component lead study on New Zealand clinoptilolite at the temperature of 25+/-1 degrees C. Fifteen runs under different operating conditions such as particle characteristics (expressed as d*(p)/D), column geometry (as...
