Design and theoretical study of a packed bed photoreactor

The design and fabrication of a new gas-phase photocatalytic packed bed reactor (PBR) is described. The photoreactor was conceived for incorporating porous, foaming titania photocatalysts for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) destruction. The PBR is optimized by theoretical prediction of the convers...

Description
Summary:The design and fabrication of a new gas-phase photocatalytic packed bed reactor (PBR) is described. The photoreactor was conceived for incorporating porous, foaming titania photocatalysts for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) destruction. The PBR is optimized by theoretical prediction of the conversion factor x as a function of the molecular feed, volume and reaction rate.
