The paper deals with modelling of catalytic reactors in which an irreversible catalyst deactivation takes place. The dimensionless model equations are derived for heterogeneous models of well-mixed regions in series, an algorithm for their solution is proposed. The obtained results are compared with experimental ones in the case of hydrogenation of benzene on a nickel catalyst with thiophene as a poison.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
