Design of Packed Bed Reactors for Gas-Liquid Reactions

concentrations of A in the liquid at the reactor inlet and outlet, kmol/m  

Schematic diagram of packed bed reactor for gas-liquid reaction. 

The design of the packed bed reactor is concerned with calculating the height Z of the bed required to achieve a specified conversion of A. 

Consider a section of thickness dz of the bed at a distance z from the gas inlet.
