Conventional and emerging processes that require the application of multiphase reactors
are reviewed with an emphasis on catalytic processes. In the past, catalyst discovery and …

Provides a holistic approach to multiphase catalytic reactors from their modeling and design
to their applications in industrial manufacturing of chemicals Covers theoretical aspects and …

Multiphase reactors are found in diverse applications such as in manufacture of petroleum-
based fuels and products, in production of commodity and specialty chemicals …

Traditionally the intermediate scale and fine chemicals industries have relied on stirred tank
reactors, operated continuously or more commonly batchwise, as the work horse of their …

Trickle-bed reactors are a commonly used type of threephase catalytic reactors in which
liquid and gas phases flow concurrently through a bed of catalyst particles. They are usually …

The article contains sections titled: 1. Fixed‐Bed Reactors with Gas‐Phase Reactions 1.1.
Introduction 1.2. Catalyst Forms for Fixed‐Bed Reactors 1.2. 1. Fluid Flow, Mass and Heat …

Monolithic reactors are in many cases an attractive alternative to conventional multi-phase
reactors. Advantages are the low-pressure drop, the absence of a need for a catalyst …
