Optimal oxygen feeding policy to maximize the production of Maleic anhydride in unsteady state fixed bed catalytic reactors

The effect of different oxygen feeding scenarios in a fixed bed reactor for the production of Maleic anhydride (MA) is studied. Two reactor configurations were examined. In the first configuration, a cross flow reactor (CFR) with 4 discrete feeding points is considered. Another configuration is the...
