Periodic flow reversal in a packed catalytic reactor in which a reversible exothermic reaction is occurring is studied using a simplified mathematical model. Model simulations are firstly performed for a single reactor and the influence of cycle time and the use of inert sections on the ends of the

The behaviour of an adiabatic packed bed reactor with periodic flow reversal has been studied by means of model calculations. A heterogeneous model as well as a pseudo-homogeneous model have been developed. It is shown that a high degree of conversion can be obtained in an autothermal process even w
Exothennic reversible reactions are industrially very significant. Previous work has looked at finding the Attainable Region for elementary kinetics and in this paper we extend the work to find optimal reactors for more complex kinetics. Using these results we show how the complexity of the kinetics
