| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method of carrying out a reaction and concurrent heat exchange within a microchannel unit, comprising: (a) inputting a feed stream of reactants to a microchannel reactor, the microchannel reactor including a waveform sandwiched between opposing process channel shim sheets at least partially defining a series of microchannels having an aspect ratio greater than 1.5 and at least partially housing a particulate catalyst therein, where greater than thirty percent of the available volume of the series of microchannels is occupied by the particulate catalyst; (b) reacting at least a portion of reactants within the microchannel reactor to form product molecules, where the reaction is at least one of methanol synthesis, Fischer-Tropsch, hydrogenation, hydroracking, oligermization, polymerization, alkylation, sulfonation, nitration, ammonia synthesis, oxidation, and hydrogen peroxide synthesis by direct combination; (c) removing thermal energy from the microchannel reactor using a first set of cooling microchannels in thermal communication with the microchannel reactor; and (d) removing at least a portion of the product molecules from the microchannel reactor. |
