The simulated countercurrent moving bed chromatographic reactor: a novel reactor—separator

TL;DR: The simulated countercurrent moving bed chromatographic reactor (SCMCR) as mentioned in this paper is a device for carrying out chemical reaction and separation simultaneously in a fixed bed, which is a novel reactor type in which separation takes place at the site of chemical reaction to improve product purities and conversions beyond those prescribed by thermodynamic equilibrium.

Continuous flow systems. Distribution of residence times

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to predict the distribution of residence-times in large systems by using distribution-functions for residencetimes, which can be used to calculate the etficiencies of reactors and blenders.

Experimental studies of a chromatographic moving-bed reactor

TL;DR: In this article, a chromatographic moving-bed reactor is used for the oxidation of carbon monoxide over activated alumina with first-order irreversible kinetics, and the observed concentration profiles of the reactant and the product along the longitudinal direction of the bed are compared with the theoretical curves to show that the proposed model is valid.

The Mathematical Theory of a Countercurrent Catalytic Reactor

TL;DR: In this article, the steady-state behavior of a countercurrent catalytic reactor has been analyzed mathematically for a reversible reaction-adsorption system, in the first instance, under the ideal chromatographic conditions in which negligible axial dispersion and instantaneous local adsorption equilibrium are assumed.
