This paper aims to study the effect of raschig ring packing patterns using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). CFD module of particle tracing was established to measure particles diffusing through the packed bed. The support raschigs catalyst was modeled in three patterns within a tubular reactor – namely, vertical staggered, chessboard staggered and reciprocal staggered pattern. A case study of Dry Methane Reforming (DMR) was investigated at 600°C, 1 atm. The study of Mean Resident Time (MRT) and E(t) function were investigated to identify the packing pattern performance. The results showed that the minimum value of the E(t), which means the flow behavior, was close to ideal plug flow behavior. MRT can be used to systematically identify the deviation from the ideal plug flow reactor of the three different packing patterns.

<p></p><p>The emergence of a viral pandemic has motivated the transition away from traditional, labor-intensive materials testing techniques to new automated approaches without compromising on data quality and at costs viable for academic laboratories. Reported here is the design and implementation of an autonomous micro-flow reactor for catalyst evaluation condensing conventional laboratory-scale analogues within a single gas chromatograph (GC), enabling the control of relevant parameters including reactor temperature and reactant partial pressures directly from the GC. Inquiries into the hydrodynamic behavior, temperature control, and heat/mass transfer were sought to evaluate the efficacy of the micro-flow reactor for kinetic measurements. As a catalyst material screening example, a combination of four Brønsted acid catalyzed probe reactions, namely the dehydration of ethanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, and the dehydra-decyclization of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran on a solid acid HZSM-5 (Si/Al 140), were carried out in the temperature range 403-543 K for the measurement of apparent reaction kinetics. Product selectivities, proton-normalized reaction rates, and apparent activation barriers were in agreement with measurements performed on conventional packed bed flow reactors. Furthermore, the developed micro-flow reactor was demonstrated to be about ten-fold cheaper to fabricate than commercial automated laboratory-scale reactor setups and is intended to be used for kinetic investigations in vapor-phase catalytic chemistries, with the key benefits including automation, low cost, and limited experimental equipment instrumentation.</p><p></p>

AbstractAn efficient, sustainable, and continuous method for the preparation of graphene supported palladium nanoparticles (Pd/G) has been developed using microwave irradiation as a heating source for the metal deposition process. The Pd/G produced from this method was effective in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions with a broad range of substrates. When incorporated into a packed bed flow reactor, this ligand free catalyst system continued to demonstrate high reaction conversions with limited catalyst leaching in the reaction mixture (347 ppb palladium).
