Swaaij et al.,Chem.Eng.J.,2002,90:2545),Characters of the fixed-bed reactor,In passing through fixed beds,gases approximate plug flow.If efficient contacting in a reactor is of primary importance,then the fixed bed is favored.Effective temperature control of large fixed beds can be difficult because such systems are characterized by a low heat conductivity.If operations are to be restricted within a narrow temperature range,then the fluidized bed is favored.Fixed beds cannot use very small sizes of catalyst because of plugging and high-pressure drop,whereas fluidized beds are well able to use small-size particles.If the catalyst has to be treated(regenerated)frequently because it deactivates rapidly,then the liquid-like fluidized state allows it to be pumped easily from unit to unit.There is no catalyst attrition in the fixed-bed reactor.,12,Temperature profile of the fixed bed reactor,13,Exothermic reaction,Hot spot,14.2 Pressure Drop in the Packed Bed Reactor,In liquid phase,effect
