Application of the Monte Carlo method to process calculations for a catalyst flow model

New and improved dispersion and recovery techniques for slurry phase catalysis. Quarterly report, January-March, 1984

“…The Monte Carlo technique can provide a means to model chemical processes which are too complex for analytic solutions. Colhart et al (1971) used this technique •for a simple reactor-regenerator catalyst flow model for which analytic solutions, as explained earlier, exist. They found that reasonably accurate calculations could be made using this technique.…”
