SIMULATION d'un réacteur catalytique pour la synthèse du méthanol

Abstract

Methanol is a very important raw material in the chemical and petrochemical industries. The synthesis reactor of methanol from synthesis gas, current of the complex methanol and synthetic resins of Arzew, use a copper-based catalyst produced by the company Imperial Chemical Industries and then imported high price often affect a very important way the cost of production (cost) of methanol. The aim of this work is to simulate a reactor operating with a catalyst based on zeolites, materials that can be obtained from local raw materials.
