Abstract

A solution of the intensification problem of the column chemical reactors is presented in the approximation of the mechanics of continua. The effect of the radial non-uniformity of the velocity distribution, the effect of the tangential flow and simultaneous mass, and heat transfer processes are analyzed. A theoretical analysis of the simultaneous mass and heat transfer processes in column reactors is presented.
