Countercurrent Moving-bed Reactor Research Articles

The continuous countercurrent moving bed chromatographic reactor

The physical basis upon which the continuous countercurrent moving bed chromatographic reactor is able to shift chemical equilibrium to favor a reaction product, and to give the product in a highly purified state, is discussed. Preliminary experimental results for the hydrogenation of 1,3,5-trimethyl benzene are given. The design and construction of an improved countercurrent moving bed reactor is presented.
