A fluidized bed is a packed bed through which fluid flows at such a high velocity that the bed is 'loosened' and the particle-fluid mixture behaves as though it is a fluid. Thus when a bed of particles is fluidized, the entire bed can be transported as a fluid. Both gas and liquid flows can be used to fluidize a bed of particles.
The liberated CO2 is removed from the reactor to external storage. In the exothermic carbonation step, a CO2-containing gas flows through a bed of CaO particles in the reaction zone, forming CaCO3, while CO2-depleted gas leaves the system. The reactor design is refined using a numerical heat and fluid flow model for the calcination step.
Aug 15, 2014 · Design Challenges of Packed Bed Reactors. When designing a packed bed reactor, the design must include mass transfer (or species transport) in the bed as well as heat transfer and chemical reactions. Understanding and optimizing the heat transfer through packed beds is important in order to decrease the cost of running the equipment. The packed .

trickle bed reactor In a trickle bed reactor the gas and liquid flow (trickle) concurrently downward over a packed bed of catalyst particles. Industrial trickle beds are typically 3 to 6 m deep and up to 3 m in diameter and are filled with catalyst particles ranging from to in. in diameter. The pores of the catalyst are filled with liquid.
An accurate numerical model is proposed to simulate flow through cylindrical fixed-bed reactors with randomly packed porous non-spherical particles.

The surface concentration inside porous particles forms a catalytic bed (concentration at the surface of the pores inside the pellet), simulated using the Reactive Pellet Bed feature. A bulk species is transported past and through catalytic porous particles. The species reacts on the fluid-matrix interface inside the pellets that form the particle.
One of the most common reactors in the chemical industry, for use in heterogeneous catalytic processes, is the packed bed reactor.

Application of granular bed for water treatment can be traced back as early as 200 BC 1 where waste water passed over the grains and the small suspended particles deposited onto the grains during the process of water purification. However, fine particles deposition is not always a desirable phenomenon, e.g. for trickle-bed reactors, deposition of fine particles reactors has most unwanted .
