Reaction engineering of the hydrogenolysis of liquid n-Alkanes: Comparison of flow and batch reaction systems by Zhuoming Feng, Siwon Lee, Raymond J. Gorte, John M. Vohs

“…To aid in this effort, here we report a study of the hydrogenolysis of the alkane, n-hexatriacontane (C36H74), over a Ru/SiO2 catalyst in both batch and flow reactor configurations. For similar catalyst contact times and H2 pressures, the C36 hydrogenolysis rate was found to be significantly higher in the batch reactor compared to the flow reactor which can be attributed to H2 bubbles forming inactive dry zones on the catalyst surface in the flow reactor which are less prevalent in the batch reactor. …”
