Batch and semibatch catalytic reactors (from theory to practice)
نویسندگان
چکیده
A short review of batch reactor theory and practice is the subject of this paper. Based on unsteady state mass and energy balances, the mathematical set of equations describing the time-dependent behaviour of a batch or semibatch reactor is reported. The attention is focused on some examples of batch reactor experiences (experimental studies, scale-up techniques, industrial operation and optimisation), in order to show how a theory-based sound engineering practice can lead to process improvements. # 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

A comparative study on the dispersion of CuO-ZnO-Al2O3 nanoparticles over HZSM-5 via batch co-precipitation, semibatch co- precipitation and combined co-precipitation-ultrasound methods
A series of CuO-ZnO-Al2O3 nanoparticles over HZSM-5 were successfully prepared using different methods of batch co-precipitation, semibatch co-precipitation and combined co-precipitation-ultrasound. Nitrates of copper, zinc and aluminum were used as precursors, while Na-ZSM-5 was employed as composite support and sodium carbonate was used as precipitant agent. The effects of preparation methods...

Wall-to-bed (or wall-to-fluid) heat transfer issues in trickle bed reactors (TBR) has an important impact on operation and efficiency in this category of reactors. In this study, the hydrodynamic and thermal behavior of trickle bed reactors was simulated by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique. The multiphase behavior of trickle bed reactor was studied by the implementation of ...

متن کاملMiniemulsion Copolymerization of Ethylene and Vinyl Acetate
The copolymerizations of a gaseous monomer (ethylene) and a liquid monomer (vinyl acetate) via emulsion and miniemulsion polymerizations are reported. Reactions in which the vinyl acetate was introduced in both batch and semibatch modes are carried out. (Ethylene introduction is always in a semibatch model since the polymerization is carried out under a constant pressure of ethylene in the reac...
