Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

High-throughput experimentation for catalysis testing has become an established practice in catalytic research, yet obtaining accurate and relevant results is still considered an art. Here, the engineering concepts of the Flowrence parallel smallscale reactor systems are discussed. The influence of catalyst particle size, flow patterns, pressure drop and temperature profiles on the quality of catalytic results is exemplified by several case studies on Fischer-Tropsch, Oxidative Coupling of Methane and Hydrotreating to obtain Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel.

Keywords:

Flowrence, parallel small-scale reactor, catalyst particle size, catalyst bed dilution, hydrodynamics, flow patterns, trickle flow, mass transfer phenomena, heat transfer, isothermal, kinetic measurements, Fischer-Tropsch, Oxidative Coupling of Methane (OCM), Hydrotreating to Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel.
