Scale-up of an RF heated micro trickle bed reactor to a kg/day production scale

Scale-up of strategies of a multi catalyst zone radio frequency heated micro trickle bed reactor

The scale up of an isothermal micro-trickle bed reactor operated under radio frequency (RF) heating has been performed. The effect of the reactor length, tube diameter and number of parallel tubes on the temperature non-uniformity parameter has been studied. The axial and radial temperature profiles were calculated using a 2D convection and conduction heat transfer problem with heat transfer pr...

DEVELOPMENT OF A PELLET SCALE MODEL FOR TRICKLE BED REACTOR USING CFD TECHNIQUES

In this study, a pellet scale model was developed for trickle bed reactor utilizing CFD techniques. Drag coefficients were calculated numerically at different velocities and bulk porosities in the case of single phase flow through the dry bed. The simulation results were then compared with the prediction of Kozeny-Carman (K-C) equation. The results indicated that drag coefficients calculated fr...

Styrene Biofiltration in a Trickle-Bed Reactor

The biological treatment of styrene waste gas in a trickle–bed filter (TBF) was investigated. The bioreactor consisted of a two-part glass cylinder (ID 150 mm) filled with 25 mm polypropylene Pall rings serving as packing material. The bed height was 1m. Although the laboratory temperature was maintained at 22 °C, the water temperature in the trickle–bed filter was slightly lower (about 18 °C)....
