Zusammenfassung

Der Einfluss von betrieblichen Bedingungen, Katalysatoreigenschaften und Reaktorabmessungen auf das Verhalten von Rieselbettreaktoren für heterogen-katalysierte Gas-Flüssig-Reaktionen wird illustriert. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf der Beschreibung der komplexen Hydrodynamik und der Transportprozesse sowie deren Berücksichtigung bei der Reaktormodellierung. Zusätzlich werden Aspekte der Prozessentwicklung auf Basis von Laborexperimenten beleuchtet und Kriterien zur Bewertung der Abweichung vom idealen Rohrreaktor diskutiert. Zur Überwindung von Stofftransportlimitierungen werden Intensivierungskonzepte für Rieselbettreaktoren vorgestellt.

Der Beitrag wurde in einer vorigen Version versehentlich vorab veröffentlicht und wurde korrigiert.
