(568f) Multiscale Approach to the Design of a Trickle Bed Reactor
AIChE Annual Meeting
2017
2017 Annual Meeting
Process Development Division
Process Scale-up Techniques
Wednesday, November 1, 2017 - 2:35pm to 3:00pm
This talk will discuss the scale-up of a trickle bed reactor for selective liquid phase hydrogenation. Insights from bench scale experiments, cold flow studies, pilot plant testing, and fundamentals based kinetics and reactor modeling are combined to increase the robustness and confidence in commercial reactor design.
