Which of the following is true for fluidized catalytic beds?(a) They cannot be used for multi-phase chemical reactions(b) The bulk density is a function of the flow rate through the bed(c) They come under the category of batch reactors(d) There is no pressure dropThe question was asked in exam.I need to ask this question from Non topic in portion Rate Laws and Stoichiometry of Chemical Reaction Engineering

Answer»

The correct answer is (B) The bulk DENSITY is a function of the flow rate through the bed

To explain: Fluidized catalytic BEDS are mostly used for multi-phase REACTIONS, for example, CUMENE decomposition. They come under flow reactors. The inclusion of fluidized bed offers more resistance to flow and hence results in a pressure drop.
