โฆ Synopsis
Ab&aet-XohIitions are derived under. which the reactor proEk of catalyst temperature goes through a maximum at u point other than outlet in an adiabatic reactor. Relatively simple methods are developed for the cahdation of this maximum temperature. It is shown that the maximum catalyst temperature can increase with time for a certain time period when the catalyst undergoes deactivation. Conditiens under which this can happen are also derived. The maximum temperature always increases with time ia the co9es of uniform sintering and dependent poisoning nrovided that a certain ccndition is met in the latter case. if the initial maximum occurs at a point other than the butlet.

Heat effects in fixed-bed sorption columns are often quite large and have a pronounced effect on the sorption kinetics. Proper design of such systems must include consideration of these effects. A method is developed for computing the maximum possible bed temperature. The model is tested on two sys
