Abstract

With regard to an effective use of catalyst it is necessary to realize a uniform distribution over the entire reactor. There are a number of experimental studies reported in the literature (1–5) which show that even for small particles well pronounced solid concentration profiles can be observed in the gas agitated bubble column slurry reactors (BCSR). A dispersion-sedimentation model has been proposed, which successfully describes measured data (2–4).
