The mass transfer of hydrogen in fat hydrogenation was studied in two geometrically similar reactors of 30 and 500 liter capacity equipped for hydrogen rec/rculation. A scale-up rule was formulated on the basis of the experiments and checked in industrial hydrogenations with a 24 m 3 reactor. The scale-up rule found was similar to the equal mixing time rule.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
