TL;DR: A combination of terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) and NMR relaxation time analysis has been applied to investigate 2-propanol/water mixtures across the entire composition range; while neutron diffraction studies have been carried out at two specific concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flow, Transport, and Reaction Interactions for Cylindrical Particles With Strongly Endothermic Reactions
TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D realistic flow field was coupled to species and energy balances in cylindrical catalyst particles using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and detailed pellet surface and intraparticle temperature, species, and reaction rate distributions were obtained for a nearwall particle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring gas hold-up in gas–liquid/gas–solid–liquid stirred tanks with an electrical resistance tomography linear probe
TL;DR: In this paper, an ERT linear probe was used to measure gas hold-up in a two-phase and three phase stirred tank system equipped with a Rushton turbine, and the results were compared with correlations, hard-field tomography data and CFD simulations available in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Comparison of a Trickle Bed and a Monolith for Hydrogenation of Pyrolysis Gasoline
TL;DR: The applicability of a monolith system to a retrofit application for the hydrogenation of pyrolysis gasoline (Pygas) is evaluated in this article, where a direct comparison between a trickle bed (extruded trilobe) and a washcoated monolith is made using a simulated model Pygas mixture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Fines and Porous Catalyst on Hydrodynamics of Trickle Bed Reactors
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of diluting the bed of industrial catalyst particles with fines upon the residence time distribution (RTD) of liquid flowing through the bed is investigated. And the authors found that the dispersion coefficient decreased by up to 50% for the bed with fines, compared to that of an undiluted bed.
