β¦ Synopsis
The dynarmc behavior of three-phase slurry systems IS presented m terms of the response charactensfics of the reactor to a pulse or step mput Equauons are denved for the steady-state conversion and the first moment of the response m the gas phase to pulse mput of concentration Overall ureverslble and reversible first-order reactions, and adsorption-reaction processes at the catalyst surface have been consldered from the vlewpomt of evaluatmg rate coefficxents from measured response data Analysis of two-step adsorption-reaction processes 1s partuxlarly mterestmg smce dynamic data offer the posslbtity of separate evaluatton of adsorptlon and surface reaction rate constants, wiuch IS not possible from steady-state measurements LNTROIWCTION

Abstraet-The dynamics of an isothermal batch, three-phase slurry reactor with a first-order reaction occurring in uniform spherical catalyst particles have been investigated.

Analytical time domain solutions are provided for the transient response of three-phase slurry reactors, with diffusion and first-order irreversible chemical reaction in catalyst particles, for the following disturbances: (a) step input of the reactant in the inlet gas stream; and @) when the cataly
