Fixed-bed catalyst structure obtained using honeycomb elements

摘要

A novel fixed-bed catalyst structure obtained using honeycomb elements, for highly exothermic and endothermic chemical reactions, wherein the required heat exchange, both in the liquid phase and in the gas phase, is forcibly effected in the fixed catalyst bed by means of static mixing elements made of inert ceramic and/or metallic material or completely of catalyst material, between the individual honeycomb elements.
