Title: Catalytic reactor
Inventor: BOWE MICHAEL JOSEPH
IPC: B01J19/24
Filed: 2007-07-17
Abstract: A compact catalytic reactor (10) for performing a chemical reaction between reactants defines a multiplicity of first and second flow channels (16, 17) arranged alternately, the first flow channels providing flow paths for reactants and the second flow channels providing a source of heat for the reaction. Each flow channel in which a chemical reaction is to take place contains a removable fluid-permeable catalyst structure (20). The walls defining the first flow channels (16), and preferably those of the second flow channels (17) too, are treated so as to have surfaces with a high emissivity. This reactor is particularly suited to reactions carried out at a temperature above about 500{C, at which temperature radiative heat transfer becomes significant.
