Abstract
A lab. micro-pilot fixed-bed reactor for the dehydrogenation of methylcyclohexane was modeled. The kinetic model developed in the authors previous work over 1.0 wt.% Pt/γ-Al2O3 was used in modeling the reactor. The exptl. data over the same catalyst was compared with the proposed model and reasonable ests. of the data were found. Effective radial thermal cond. and apparent wall heat-transfer coeff. were obsd. to be a function of the compn. of the reaction mixt. and varied along the length of the reactor. [on SciFinder(R)]
