Hydrodynamics of Gas-Liquid Reactors

Beschreibung

Hydrodynamics, the study of fluids in motion, is a crucial consideration when designing multiphase chemical reactors, particularly those involving gas-liquid reactions. The design of chemical reactors and their safety are as critical to the success of a chemical process as the actual chemistry taking place within the reactor. Hydrodynamics of Multiphase Reactors addresses both practical and theoretical aspects of this topic. Providing a comprehensive overview of the practical aspects of multiphase reactor design and operation with an emphasis on safety and clean technology, it considers not only standard operation conditions, but also the problems of runaway reaction conditions and protection against ensuing over-pressure. Divided into three parts, covering the methods used for design calculation, upset conditions, and measurement techniques, the contents include: * Bubble Columns * Sparged Stirred Vessels * Thin Film Reactors * Macroscale and Mesoscale Modelling * Upset Conditions * Behaviour of Vessel Contents and Outflow Calculations * Choked Flow This text will be of great interest to industrial practitioners and academic researchers, as well as being suitable for MSc and PhD students in chemical engineering and chemical sciences.
The design of chemical reactors and their safety are as critical to the success of a chemical process as the actual chemistry taking place within the reactor. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the practical aspects of multiphase reactor design and operation with an emphasis on safety and clean technology. It considers not only standard operation conditions, but also the problems of runaway reaction conditions and protection against ensuing over-pressure. Hydrodynamics of Multiphase Reactors addresses both practical and theoretical aspects of this topic. Initial chapters discuss various different types of gas/liquid reactors from a practical viewpoint, and later chapters focus on the modelling of multiphase systems and computational methods for reactor design and problem solving. The material is written by experts in their specific fields and will include chapters on the following topics: Multiphase flow, Bubble columns, Sparged stirred vessels, Macroscale modelling, Microscale modelling, Runaway conditions, Behaviour of vessel contents, Choked flow, Measurement techniques.
