Sensitivity of methanol-to-olefin reaction to axial gas dispersion: determination in a vibrated-bed microreactor

A microreactor has been developed to study the sensitivity of Methanol-To-Olefin (MTO) reaction to axial gas dispersion. It comprises a rectangular horizontal duct, 12.7 mm in height, 25.4 mm in width, variable in length, charged with a 1-mm-deep layer of HZSM-5 catalyst. The microreactor is constru...
