New publication in the field of fixed-bed methanation

Applying reaction kinetics to pseudo-homogenous methanation modeling in fixed-bed reactors / V. Scharl, F. Fischer, S. Fendt, S. Herrmann, H. Spliethoff / Chemical Engineering and Technology 43 (2020), DOI

In this publication a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model for the simulation of fixed bed methanation is presented and validated by experimental data. Novel reactor concepts and the methanation of biogenic synthesis gases can be calculated with this model.
