What is the purpose of placing ceramic balls at the upper and lower parts of the catalyst in a converter?
The lower porcelain balls serve primarily as a support structure, while the upper porcelain balls are used to press down on the bed layer, ensuring that gas is distributed evenly throughout it. They also help to reduce damage to the bed layer in cases where water is present
The function of the ceramic ball is to support the catalyst, distribute gases, and prevent cold water from coming into direct contact with the catalyst
The porcelain balls at the bottom serve a supporting function, while those placed on top are used to press down on the catalyst, preventing air currents from entering the reactor and causing the catalyst to be displaced, which could lead to uneven distribution of flow. It is advisable to place a layer of stainless steel mesh between the porcelain balls and the catalyst
