Heat exchange reforming Radial flow

FIG. 19-3 Fixed-bed reactors with heat exchange, (a) Adiabatic downflow, (b) Adiabatic radial flow, low AP. (c) Built-in interbed exchanger, (d) Shell and tube, (e) Interbed cold-shot injection, (f) External interbed exchanger, (g) Autothermal shell, outside influent/effluent heat exchanger. (h) Multibed adiabatic reactors with interstage heaters, (t) Platinum catalyst, fixed-bed reformer for 5000 BPSD charge rates reactors 1 and 2 are 5.5 by 9.5 ft and reactor 3 is 6.5 by 12.0 ft temperatures 502 433, 502 => 471,502 => 496°C. To convert feet to meters, multiply by 0.3048 BPSD to m3/h, multiply by 0.00662.
