in the present study, a heterogeneous and homogeneous gas flow dispersion model for simulation and optimization of a large-scale catalytic slurry reactor for the direct synthesis of dimethyl ether (dme) from synthesis gas (syngas) and co2, using a churn-turbulent regime was developed. in the heterogeneous flow model, the gas phase was distributed into two bubble phases including small and large...

The direct synthesis process of dimethyl ether (DME) from syngas in slurry reactors is considered to be promising because of its advantages in caloric transfer. In this paper, the influences of operating conditions (temperature, pressure and weight hourly space velocity) on the conversion of CO, selectivity of DME and methanol were studied in a stirred autoclave over Cu-Zn-Al-Zr slurry catalyst...

this paper investigates hollow and porous alumina nanospheres that were previously synthesized to be used for the dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether (dme). as hollow nanostructures possess characteristics such as low density and high surface to volume ratio, their catalytic activity between hollow and porous structure is compared. for this purpose, three most important parameters (acidit...

The work consists of a detailed study the influence pressure, temperature, volume velocity and molar ratio H 2 /CO on CO conversion DME output. synthesis in presence CuO·ZnO·Al O 3 ·ZrO ·CaO/bentonite: γ-Al catalyst was studied terms their layer-by-layer loading. It shown that method loading catalysts 2:1:2 is best option. Further studies catalytic activity samples were carried out using method...
