Slurry reactors, computational fluid dynamics

Although considerable advances have been made both in understanding the basic aspects of slurry bubble column reactors (SBCR) and in developing rational design procedures, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) - assisted design methodology for reactor optimization is sparse. [Pg.124]

Slurry bubble column reactor for methanol and other hydrocarbons productions from synthesis gas is an issue of interest to the energy industries throughout the world. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a recently developed tool which can help in the scale up. We have developed an algorithm for computing the optimum process of fluidized bed reactors. The mathematical technique can be applied to gas solid, liquid-solid, and gas-liquid-solid fluidized bed reactors, as well as the LaPorte slurry bubble column reactor. Our computations for the optimum particle size show that there is a factor of about two differences between 20 and 60 pm size with maximum granular-like temperature (turbulent kinetic energy) near the 60 pm size particles. [Pg.146]
