Xylene isomerization in an extractor type catalytic membrane reactor

A Comprehensive Model for Catalytic Membrane Reactor

Catalytic membrane reactors are multifunctional reactors, which provide improved performance over conventional reactors. These are used mainly for conducting hydrogenation/ dehydrogenation reactions, and synthesis of oxyorganic compounds by using inorganic membranes. In this paper, comprehensive model has been developed for a tubular membrane reactor, which is applicable to Pd or Pd alloys memb...

Catalytic Membrane Reactor: Multilayer membranes elaboration

Methane conversion to syngas is very attractive for hydrogen or clean fuel production and provides an alternative to oil products. An efficient architecture for the membrane reactor is constituted of a porous support, a thin dense membrane and a catalyst layer. This work is focused on the elaboration process of such asymmetric membranes by co-sintering of at least the porous support and the den...

Real Time Chemical Imaging of a Working Catalytic Membrane Reactor

This section contains details regarding the preparation of catalyst and membranes and further details on the experimental setup (including two photographs of the XRD-CT experimental setup), a comment relating to an artefact present within this XRD-CT, normalised summed intensity changes (as a companion to Figure 2), XRD-CT data focusing on the BCFZ membrane, a diffraction pattern to illustrate ...

High-Temperature Membrane Reactor for Catalytic Gas-Solid Reactions

A mathematical model, based on the dusty-gas model extended with surface diffusion, is presented that describes mass transport owing to molecular diffusion and viscous flow, as well as an instantaneous reversible reaction inside a membrane reactor. The reactants are fed to opposite sides of the membrane, considering masstransfer resistances in the gas phase outside the membrane. The Claus react...
