Comparison of the Effects of Fluidized-Bed and Fixed-Bed Reactors in Microwave-Assisted Catalytic Decomposition of TCE by Hydrogen

Abstract EN

Trichloroethylene (TCE) decomposition by hydrogen with microwave heating under different reaction systems was investigated.

The activities of a series of catalysts for microwave-assisted TCE hydrodechlorination were tested through the fixed-bed and the fluidized-bed reactor systems.

This study found that the different reaction system is suitable for different catalyst type.

And there is an interactive relationship between the catalyst type and the reaction bed type.
