Hydrogenation
; "Foto of bubbles with a size of 200 micrometers")
bubble size 200 micrometers
The reaction velocity is very much depending on the intensity of the mixture between gas and liquid and this is a direct function of the number and size of the gas bubbles in a reactor system.
The BUSS LOOP® reactor with its special reaction mixer reaches superb values in this respect. The average size of a gas bubble is 200 micrometers. This allows us to work with a volume which is higher than average and again this speeds up the reaction. Such reactions are exothermic and therefore the heat exchanger is located outside the reaction zone so that it can be sized according to its real need.
The conclusion is: a BUSS LOOP® reactor is normally smaller than a stirred tank reactor. Further advantages which have been proven in numerous industrial plants for:
- Aldehydes and ketenes
- Aliphatic nitro-compounds
- Aromatic nitro-compounds
- Double and Triple bond hydrogenation
- Halogenated aromatic nitro-compounds
- Nitriles
- Polyhydric alcohols like Xylitol, Lactitol, Sorbitol
- Ring hydrogenation
Our clients could always measure their success by working with us. Depending on the reaction, they could reach one or several of the following goals:
- Shorter reaction time
- Higher selectivity
- Higher yield
- Reduced catalyst consumption and load
- Higher productivity
- Reduced solvent load when working with a solvent
Take the opportunity and get in contact with us. It will help you and your company.
