Abstract
SummaryA total of 12 hydrogenations were conducted in the pilot plant. The conditions were such that analyses of the data would furnish information as to the effect of 6 variables on the course of the reaction. The most reliable estimates were obtained for the effect of increasing, by agitation, the dispersion of hydrogen in the oil. The dispersion was accomplished by converting from a simple turbine agitator to a gas dispersing type with easily fabricated parts. This change resulted in a more selective reaction with respect to unsaturates. The change can also result in a shorter reaction time, or in the consumption of less power. Judging from its effects on the course of hydrogenation, agitation cannot simply be defined in terms of speed.
