Chapter 10 Gas–solid noncatalytic reactions and reactors
Chapter objectives
Upon successful completion of this chapter, the students should be able to
• Classify the gas–solid reactions according to the interaction domains.
• Select the most appropriate model for a gas–solid reaction at hand.
• Apply mass and energy conservation laws to derive the relevant differential equations and select the most appropriate boundary conditions.
• Recite the difference between a homogeneous model and a heterogeneous model, in mathematical domain and in physical domain.
• Understand the limitations of a particular model.
• List a number of industrial gas–solid reactions.
Introduction
Reactions between gases and solids are widespread ...
