This paper presents a two-dimensional distributed model for the transport and reaction of combustion gases in channels of three-way catalytic converters, considering a detailed reaction kinetics with 16 chemical reactions in palladium and rhodium catalysts, and taking into account diffusive effects within the coating, to obtain a new set of reaction kinetic parameters that do not depend on the thickness of the coating. The model was solved using a finite volume method with a first order upwind scheme and simulations were conducted using computational fluid dynamics. The model with the new distributed reaction kinetic parameters, produced an excellent agreement with the experimental data of concentration at the end of the channels. Also, the model reproduced the most important concentration changes for the gas components in the specified temperature range and allowed simulations with excess oxygen and different thicknesses.

Supercritical Water Oxidation (SCWO) processes have been studied by numerous researchers. The effectiveness of this approach to treat a wide variety of wastes has been proved and the kinetics involved in some cases have been described. Phenol is commonly present in industrial wastewaters and it is extremely toxic. Hence, phenol is a model pollutant that has been the subject of numerous studies by SCWO on a laboratory scale. In this work, a pilot-scale SCWO system has been used to compare experimental and predicted conversions in the SCWO of phenol, using the reaction kinetic equations obtained at the laboratory scale. In this context, “PROSIM PLUS” software was employed to develop a simulator for the pilot plant facility, with the reaction kinetic parameters adjusted to represent the experimental data. In this study it was necessary to determine the thermal losses between the experimental reactor and its surroundings. These thermal losses were obtained from tests with pure water and oxidant streams in the absence of chemical reaction. An equation that predicted the effect of flow rate and temperature on the thermal losses was used. Experimental oxidation tests were conducted with initial temperature in the range 380 to 425 ºC, at 250 bar and phenol concentrations ranging from 1 to 12 g/l. Good agreement in the simulation was obtained by adjusting the kinetic parameters within their confidence range. This simulator was used to optimize the SCWO of phenol solutions in the pilot plant facility.
