MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
This book analyzes conventional fixed-bed reactors such as trickle-bed, bubble (packed) column, and multitubular reactors with regard to process efficiency, design and safety. It is shown that these reactors do not possess any substantial potential for improving industrial processes.
Modern concepts in mass transfer, kinetics and process design are applied to process development. In light of the given analysis, new approaches to the development of technologies based on innovative principles are elucidated. For the first time, first-hand knowledge about Two-Zone Model, Oscillation Theory, map of the energy dissipation is presented in full.
Contents:
Preface Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Technological reasons for the selection of fixed-bed reactors Chapter 3: Traditional approaches to the design of fixed-bed reactors Chapter 4: Process flow diagram and principal embodiments of the conventional industrial units Chapter 5: Analysis of conventional industrial processes Chapter 6: Purification processes Chapter 7: Do the conventional fixed-bed reactors possess any potential for the process intensification? Chapter 8: Unsteady-state operation (feed modulations) as an attempt to intensify processes: Can it be applied on a great scale? Chapter 9: Alternative industrial fixed-bed technologies Chapter 10: Conclusions and perspectives Appendix A: Evaluation of an incorporated heat exchanger destined for the complete heat withdrawal from a catalyst bed Appendix B: Energy demand for the compression and transportation of gas
