How Do Catalysts Affect Mixed Flow Reactor Performance?
Catalysts play a crucial role in enhancing the performance of mixed flow reactors by lowering the activation energy of reactions and increasing the reaction rate. The effectiveness of a catalyst in a mixed flow reactor depends on:
Catalyst Surface Area: Higher surface area allows more reactant molecules to interact with the catalyst simultaneously. Catalyst Activity: Determines how effectively the catalyst promotes the reaction. Catalyst Stability: Ensures the catalyst maintains its activity over extended periods under reaction conditions.
