Vegetable oils are hydrogenated in a _______________ reactor?
Correct answer: A. Slurry
- A. Slurry
- B. Plug flow
- C. Homogeneous catalytic
- D. None of these
Explanation
Hydrogenation of vegetable oils uses a finely divided solid catalyst suspended in the liquid oil, with hydrogen gas dispersed through the mixture. This three-phase operation is therefore carried out in a slurry reactor.
