Abstract

Abstract: In this work, we carried out a numerical simulation of an industrial reactor of a radial type with a fixed catalyst bed for the process of ethylbenzene to styrene dehydrogenation. We solved the problem in the approximation of two-dimensional axial symmetry. The parameters of the chemically reacting gas mixture movement in the catalyst bed are considered. The reactor zones which have a negative impact on the reaction efficiency have been determined.
