Several strategies can be employed to mitigate flow restriction:
1. Regular Maintenance: Periodic cleaning and replacement of catalysts can prevent fouling. 2. Optimized Reactor Design: Ensuring proper spacing and distribution of catalyst particles can reduce channeling and pressure drops. 3. Use of Support Materials: Incorporating support materials that enhance flow characteristics can help maintain optimal flow. 4. Flow Controllers: Implementing flow controllers can help manage and regulate flow rates effectively.
