In this work, we estimate the contribution of the prefilter to the operation of the filter-prefilter system and propose two models of prefilters with curved plates. Numerical calculations of the aerosol flow in various combinations of filters and prefilters are carried out. We calculate the particle deposition efficiency of different filter models. The prefilter in the case of five and ten plates increases the limit of deposition efficiency for open cell foam material. A prefilter with five curved plates with parameters l=0.33 mm and h=4 mm is more preferably in comparison with ten plates with parameters l=0.33 mm and h=2 mm.

The research work presents the results of mathematical modeling of the ethylbenzene dehydrogenation process to styrene in a fixed catalyst bed. Calculations for the different length granule packaging are carried out. Calculated values of the reaction product yield (styrene) are in a wide range of gas velocities. There are significant differences in the yield of the product at high gas velocities for catalyst granules of different shapes. Of the considered catalyst granules forms, we got the best yield efficiency by the use of granules, which provide maximum surface area and porosity in the fixed bed catalyst.
