CATALYTIC REACTORS WITH ACTIVE BOUNDARY LAYER CONTROL

摘要

The present invention provides efficient catalytic reactors with active boundary layers in a presence of at least one mechanical disturbance and methods of improving the efficiency of the catalytic reaction with the use of at least one mechanical disturbance. The presence of at least one mechanical disturbance would improve the surface contact at the catalytic site and thereby increase the overall efficiency of the catalytic reactors. Such an improvement would require less catalyst material and shorter channels used, thereby decreasing the size of the catalytic reactors.
