stirred reactors

What are the Design Considerations?

When designing a stirred reactor for catalytic processes, several factors must be considered:
Impeller Type: The choice of impeller affects the mixing efficiency and shear rate, which can impact the catalyst's activity and lifespan.
Reactor Volume: The volume must be sufficient to accommodate the reactants and catalyst while allowing for efficient mixing.
Material of Construction: The reactor material should be compatible with the reactants and catalyst to prevent corrosion and contamination.
Temperature and Pressure: The reactor should be designed to operate at the desired temperature and pressure conditions for the specific catalytic reaction.
