Industry requires continuously new chemical processes to convert raw materials to valuable products limiting the formation of by-products. Since a few years, an increasing interest has been given to the intensification of chemical processes. This represent ...
A novel design of microstructured membrane reactor with micro-channels formed between closely packed catalytic filaments is reported. The system comprises filaments of 7 mm in diam. and has a laminar flow with a short radial diffusion time. This leads to l ...
An anisotropic structured fixed-bed divided into 2 reactor parts is a bundle reactor consisting of fiber-bundle. The fiber-bundle ordered in the flow direction are formed from filaments; the diam. of the fiber-bundle is smaller than its length and bigger t ...

The stop-effect, a drastic increase of the reaction rate when the feed concn. of a reactant is switched to zero, was studied for the dehydration of ethanol to ethylene on y- alumina at 180 and 200 DegC. Two basic models exist in the literature to describe ...
A novel membrane reactor with two zones containing structured filamentous catalytic beds was proposed for propane nonoxidative dehydrogenation. Catalytic filaments with a similar to7 similar to mum diameter consist of silica cove-red by porous alumina with ...
