Steady State Simulation of a Multi-Bed Adiabatic Reactor for Methanol Production

A one dimensional heterogeneous model accounting for intraparticle diffusion limitations is developed for methanol production from carbon oxides and hydrogen. The model and the kinetics used fit very will industrial data. The effect of the CO2/CO, (C02 + CO)/H2 mole ratios, inlet temperature, reacti...
