Abstract
Alternative designs of a pilot reactor for long-term testing of heterogeneous fixed bed catalysts were discussed with liquid-phase hydrogenation of methylphenylketone to 1-phenylethanol as an example. The discussion is exemplified with the calculation of a reactor unit for hydrogenation over catalyst NTK-11. It was demonstrated that a cascade of three adiabatic reactors with a 4,5 m high catalyst bed in each of them is needed to provide the residual concentration of the reactant less than 1 wt.%.
