A trickle bed reactor is the one, which_________________?
Correct answer: C. Employs all the three phases (i.e. solid, liquid and gas)
- A. Has altogether three streams either entering or leaving
- B. Processes three reactants at different flow rates
- C. Employs all the three phases (i.e. solid, liquid and gas)
- D. Processes three reactants with same flow rate
Explanation
A trickle-bed reactor contains a fixed solid catalyst while gas and liquid flow through the bed, so all three phases are present. It is not defined merely by having three streams or three reactants.
