Our reaction A R proceeds isothermally in a packed bed of large, slowly deactivating catalyst particles
Question:
Our reaction A → R proceeds isothermally in a packed bed of large, slowly deactivating catalyst particles and is performing well in the strong pore diffusion regime. With fresh pellets conversion is 88%; however, after 250 days conversion drops to 64%. How long can we run the reactor before conversion drops to
. . . 50%?
