Trickle bed reactors: Effect of liquid flow modulation on catalytic activity
The effect of slow ON-OFF liquid flow modulation on the oxidation of aqueous solutions of ethanol using a 0.5% Pd / Al2 O3 commercial egg-shell catalyst was investigated in a laboratory trickle bed reactor (TBR). In this mode of operation, the catalyst was cyclically exposed to oxidative and reducti...
