Book The Dynamics and Stablilty of Fixed Bed Catalytic Reactors

Download or read book The Dynamics and Stablilty of Fixed Bed Catalytic Reactors written by Colin Ivan Adderley and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various aspects of the behaviour of fixed bed reactors supporting highly exothermic reactions, relevant to stable -optimal design and control, have been studied using detailed mathematical models. In order to establish the form of the simplest basic structure, two methods of describing radial heat transfer in two dimensional packed beds have been examined. It is shown that a lumped parameter single phase heat transfer model which implicitly incorporates the heterogeneous structure can account not only for the radial heat flux associated with both the fluid and solid phases but is also the more appropriate formulation since it allows the important reaction rate limitations due to intraparticle mass transfer to be properly estimated. Using this two dimensional, heterogeneous dynamic model of the reactor it has been possible to evaluate a simpler one dimensional formulation. It is shown that the latter gives an adequate-description of the dynamic behaviour of the system, provided that the overall heat transfer coefficient between the fluid and the coolant is suitably defined, and may, therefore, be used for general studies of reactor performance. Consideration has been-given to the response of the reactor to sinusoidal perturbations of the inlet conditions. It has been found that at certain frequencies of oscillation temperature runaway may develop before a safe quasi-stationary state is reached. A detailed examination of this behaviour has shown that in addition to the non-linear effects the difference in the speeds of propagation of the concentration and temperature waves along the reactor as a result of the heterogeneity of the system is also very significant. The effect of both cocurrent and countercurrent cooling of a single reactor tube has been examined. The behaviour for perturbations in coolant temperature is similar to that for inlet temperature and indicates potential difficulties in the design of control systems. A mathematical model of a multitubular reactor with crossflow cooling has been developed and used to identify some of the problems which may arise in these systems. In particular, considerable interaction between the individual reactor tubes occurs when significant conversion of the reactant takes place. This causes tubes in different parts of the bundle to exhibit different behaviour and with countercurrent cooling this may give rise to multiple steady states due to the feedback of heat within the system. A technique has been developed for predicting regions of parametric sensitivity and temperature runaway in heterogeneous fixed bed reactors. The relationship between this form of instability and that due to multiple states of the catalyst pellet has been demonstrated. Application of this method to both the design and control of a reactor is discussed and it is shown that it provides an insight as to the behaviour of the system since it makes possible the establishment of a relationship between local and global reactor stability and the operating variables.

Book Dynamics of Surfaces and Reaction Kinetics in Heterogeneous Catalysis

Download or read book Dynamics of Surfaces and Reaction Kinetics in Heterogeneous Catalysis written by G.F. Froment and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1997-09-03 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many processes of the chemical industry are based upon heterogeneous catalysis. Two important items of these processes are the development of the catalyst itself and the design and optimization of the reactor. Both aspects would benefit from rigorous and accurate kinetic modeling, based upon information on the working catalyst gained from classical steady state experimentation, but also from studies using surface science techniques, from quantum chemical calculations providing more insight into possible reaction pathways and from transient experimentation dealing with reactions and reactors. This information is seldom combined into a kinetic model and into a quantitative description of the process. Generally the catalytic aspects are dealt with by chemists and by physicists, while the chemical engineers are called upon for mechanical aspects of the reactor design and its control. The symposium "Dynamics of Surfaces and Reaction Kinetics in Heterogeneous Catalysis" aims at illustrating a more global and concerted approach through a number of prestigious keynote lectures and severely screened oral and poster presentations.
