Two-Phase Flow and Reaction in Fixed Beds

Recently, Sederman and co-workers (755) used the DEPT MRI pulse sequence described in Section V.A.2 to investigate 1-octene hydrogenation occurring over a l-wt.% Pd/Al2O3 catalyst in a trickle-bed reactor. The reactor was of inner diameter 

In summary, many of the foundations for performing in situ imaging of catalytic processes in the reactor environment have now been put in place, and we can expect this to be an active area of research for many years to come.
