What are Pneumatic Conveying ?

In the context of fluidized reactors, pneumatic conveying is often employed to introduce or transport solid particles within the reactor. The use of pneumatic conveying in fluidized bed reactors offers several advantages, including efficient mixing, improved heat and mass transfer, and enhanced reaction rates.

What are Fluidized Reactors ?

Fluidized reactors are a type of chemical reactor that use a fluidized bed as a key component for carrying out various chemical processes. In a fluidized bed reactor, a solid material is suspended and behaves like a fluid when a gas or liquid flows through it. This creates a dynamic system with characteristics of both a solid and a fluid.
