Hydrodynamic Study of Gas/Solid Moving Beds by Means of Contact Time Distribution Approach

A new technique for the determination of contact time distribution (CTD) from tracers experiments in heterogeneous systems

“…This approach is model free and has been applied to fluidised-bed reactors (Pustelnik and Nauman, 1991;Doheim and Collinge, 1980). A model based approach has also been applied to treat experimental data obtained from multiple tracer experiments (Orth and Schügerl, 1972;Krambeck et al, 1987;Genin et al, 2002).…”
