Oil is hydrogenated using nickel catalyst in a __________________ reactor?
Correct answer: B. Slurry
- A. Batch
- B. Slurry
- C. Fluidised bed
- D. Fixed bed
Explanation
Vegetable-oil hydrogenation commonly uses finely divided nickel suspended with the liquid oil and hydrogen, forming a slurry reactor. A fixed-bed reactor contains catalyst in a stationary packed bed rather than dispersed in the oil.
