Several strategies can be employed to modify reactor design for improved catalytic performance:
Reactor Geometry: Modifying the shape and size of the reactor can enhance mixing and contact between reactants and catalysts. Internal Structures: Adding baffles, trays, or other internal structures can improve heat and mass transfer within the reactor. Reactant Feed: Optimizing the feed rate and distribution of reactants can ensure uniform catalyst utilization and prevent concentration gradients. Temperature Control: Implementing advanced temperature control systems can maintain optimal reaction conditions and prevent overheating or cooling.
