Reactor - Trickle Bed

Description

Trickle bed reactor design by Strata Technology has often formed the heart of pilot plant builds for commercial technical support in, e.g. hydroprocessing oil distillate fractions, Matching the clients processing needs for heterogeneous catalysis study has often required innovative design in loading of heterogeneous catalysts whilst enhancing gas/liquid contacting during processing studies.

Features

  • Exacting vessel design, under UKAS Inspection accreditation, with the customers' processes needs specifically addressed particularly with regards temperature, pressure constraints as well as catalyst inventory, loading and removal

  • Reactor design and operational experience for variety of liquid and gas reactants/products, accurately simulating commercial operation on a small scale

  • Wide experience of reactor types for optimised technologies, e.g. fixed, slurry, trickle and fluidised beds.

Benefits

  • Key physiochemical reaction features efficiently simulated under wide pressure and temperature conditions ensuring efficient process R&D and data collection

  • Complete confidence concerning ease of use and associated safety within processing operations

  • Ease of vessel assembly and catalyst charge loading within reactor.
