The following elementary reversible reaction, A+BC+D is carried out in a series of staged packed-bed reactors with inter-stage cooling. The lowest temperature to reactant system may be cooled is 300K. The feed is equal molar in A and B and the catalyst weight in each reactor is sufficient to achieve almost the equilibrium conversion. The feed enters at 300K and the reaction is carried out adiabatically.
