Design calculation of carbon monoxide shift converter
Thread Content
In the relevant calculations for carbon monoxide shift reactors, how should the catalyst loading height for each section and the carbon monoxide conversion rate at the outlet of each section be determined? Note: The conversion furnace is a two-stage furnace. Given the composition of the gas entering the furnace and the carbon monoxide content in the gas exiting it, how should the height of the packing layer in the first stage and the carbon monoxide conversion rate in that stage be determined?
It’s very simple: by knowing the inlet conditions and outlet requirements, and through calculations using the catalyst’s kinetic equations, it is possible to determine all the necessary parameters such as the requirements that the converter must meet, the catalyst loading requirements, the temperature distribution at hot spots, and the conversion rate. Let me know your requirements via text message, and we can help you calculate it.
The filling height of the filler must take into account the height-to-diameter ratio.
It is best to contact the catalyst manufacturer or the research institute specializing in that catalyst; they will help with the calculations and provide the specific requirements.
