Fe-Cu-K-Si catalysts were prepared in a continuous precipitation reactor. Performance of No.16 catalyst prepared from Q-235 carbon steel is the best among three industrial irons: iron sheet, iron powder and Q-235. In the range of 265℃~276℃, 1.5MPa~1.6MPa, H2/CO 0.68~1.0 and WHSV 3.6L/g·h~4.2L/g·h, the mean values of xH2+CO and C+5 are 68.7% and 96.7g·m-3 in the evaluation test of 432h. Performance of No.16 catalyst being lower than that of No.9 catalyst is due to effect of poison of P,S contained in industrial iron Q-235.展开更多

DME productivity and CO conversion were optimised by tuning operating conditions, such as superficial gas velocity, catalyst concentration, catalyst mass over molar gas flow rate (W/F), syngas composition, pressure and temperature. Reactor modelling was accomplished utilising mass balance, global kinetic models and heterogeneous hydrodynamics. In the heterogeneous flow regime, gas was distributed into two bubble phases: small and large. Simulation results were validated using data obtained from a pilot plant. The developed model is also applicable for the design of large-scale slurry reactors.展开更多

The mathematical simulation of the slurry bubble column reactor for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis was carried out under the following typical industrial operating conditions: temperature 230 ℃, pressure 3.0 MPa, gas flow 5x 105 m3/h, catalyst content in slurry phase 30%, reactor diameter 5.0 m and the composition of feed gas: y(H2)=0.60, y(CO)=0.30, y(N2)=0.10. The influences of operating pressure, temperature and re(HE)Ira(CO) in feed gas on the reactor's reaction performance were simulated.展开更多

Methanol synthesis from carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide by hydrogenation and the methanol dehydration are considered as independent reactions, in which methanol, dimethyl ether and carbon dioxide are the key components. In this model, the gas phase is considered to be in plug flow and the liquid phase to be in partly back mixing with axial distribution of solid catalyst. The simulation results show that the axial dispersion of solid catalysts, the operational height of the slurry phase in the bubble column slurry reactor, and the reaction results are influenced by the reaction temperature and pressure, which are the basic data for the scale-up of reactor.展开更多
