Light paraffins dehydrogenation in a fluidized bed reactor

The FBD-4 (fluid bed dehydrogenation) technology for the dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene is described, including the scenario in which the development of this technology was decided and the scale-up procedure used. The paper is then particularly focused on the efforts to develop a reliable...

Description
Summary:The FBD-4 (fluid bed dehydrogenation) technology for the dehydrogenation of isobutane to isobutene is described, including the scenario in which the development of this technology was decided and the scale-up procedure used. The paper is then particularly focused on the efforts to develop a reliable mathematical model for design and simulation of the fluid bed reactor.
