231 Multiphase Reaction Engineering


Description:
This session addresses new developments in multiphase reaction engineering, including hydrodynamics, kinetics, scaleup and modeling of multiphase reactors that involve at least two moving phases, such as gas-liquid, gas-solid and gas-liquid-solid reactors. This includes but is not restricted to bubble columns, trickle beds, air lift reactors, mechanically agitated gas-liquid and gas-liquid solid tanks, loop reactors, and fluidized beds, with chemical, biochemical and energy application.
