WP5 Status Report Months 31 to 50
Křišťál, Jiří ; Stavárek, Petr ; Jiřičný, Vladimír
Within WP5 in this reporting period focused on the development of a new intensified reactor concept for sulph(on)ation reaction. Based on the previous hydrodynamic experiments and mathematical models we designed a new reactor – microSulphonator. We also constructed and manufactured several prototypes that were later tested with model fluids. Experimental data were used for the validation of the models defined previously. Results of this period served as a basis for the final microSulphonators to be tested in the PGB pilot plant during the demonstration phase of the F3 project.

Analysis of the total oxidation of ethanol including reaction intermediates data obtained in the examined reactors on the temperature showed that differentmaterial applied in the construction of reactors and their arrangement give slightly different results of catalyst testing, the ones obtained from microreactor being more precise. More precise control of reaction temperature due to higher heat transfer capabilities and limited backmixing of reaction mixture in a packed bed microreactor is advantageous and leads to the more accurate results of oxidation catalysts testing. However, it is necessary to ensure in order the material used for the reactor construction did not affect the catalytic reaction. The results accomplished confirm that microreactors are not only suitable for performing of catalytic reactions in a laboratory scale but also promising way for creation of new, safer and cleaner production processes.

In this contribution we present a hydrodynamic and heat transfer model of a microreactor for a gas-liquid reaction. In the course of formulation of the model, we considered the characteristic features of the studied system – the gas-liquid flow pattern and the change in physical properties induced by pressure and temperature variation along the microreactor. Based on the input information (gas and liquid flow rates, compositions, temperatures), the model calculates the two-phase pressure drop and outlet temperature as the principal result. These results serve as a basis for the design of an intensified pilot scale microreactor.

Project Report Beneficiary No.17 ICPF Reporting period: Months 13 to 24 (01 June 2010 to 31 May 2011)
Křišťál, Jiří ; Stavárek, Petr ; Jiřičný, Vladimír
To assess the commercially available SO2 oxidation catalyst and select several for further testing we performed the extensive literature review. Based on that, we tested the selected catalysts for SO2 oxidation in experiments with the KIT lab microreactor, and started the detailed catalyst comparison based on the evaluation of the pre-exponential factor (A0) and activation energy (EA) calculated from the kinetic model by fitting the experimental data. To verify the possible design of a new sulph(on)ation reactor we performed the initial hydrodynamic experiments with gas-liquid two-phase flow in small channels.
