Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.This study evaluates how small water impurities—typical in ammonia cracking feedstock—affect catalyst performance at elevated pressures and temperatures. By decoupling permanent degradation from reversible inhibition, the findings highlight trace water as a significant factor for reliable catalyst screening and industrial ammonia cracking scale‐up ...

Comparative Study of Gas and Liquid Flow in Packed Beds Using Phase‐Contrast MRI
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.This work presents applications of phase‐contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to investigate fluid flow fields and temperature in packed beds. Comparison of ethane (C2H6) gas flow with that of water flow is done at similar flow conditions. The temperature of water is also measured using MRI.

On Metal Carbonyl Compounds in Catalytic Methanol Synthesis: Detection, Consequences, and Removal
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.Deactivation of Cu/ZnO/Al2O3 catalysts by metal carbonyl compounds in the feed gas is a critical problem in catalytic methanol synthesis. We utilize PTR–MS to identify potential chemical sources, detect contamination in an in‐house CO gas line, and validate filter methods for removing these catalyst poisons before synthesis.

Analysis of Radial Heat Transfer in Cooled Fixed‐Bed Reactors by One‐ and Two‐Dimensional Models
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.Exothermic fixed‐bed reactors are analyzed using 1D and 2D models. Radial temperature profiles from the 2D model enable optimization of the 1D approach via adjusted overall heat transfer coefficient. Derived correlations improve prediction accuracy, whereas thermal runaway behavior and model sensitivity are evaluated. ABSTRACT Exothermic reactions in a

Revisiting the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from methanol and carbon dioxide
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract The process for producing dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from carbon dioxide (CO2) and methanol is explored in this article. It provides an overview of the thermodynamics involved in DMC synthesis, discussing the challenges and potential solutions. The article highlights the reported use of catalysts and dehydrating agents to improve DMC yield and ...
