Abstract
In this study, we examined a scale-up to production of nickel perovskite catalyst, usedin the conversion of natural gas to synthesis gas, using the sol-gel method in thelaboratory and a bench-scale reactor. The required volume of solvent and catalystactivity in the methane-reforming reaction was determined from the optimum catalystproduction conditions at the laboratory scale. This information was then used to designthe bench-scale unit. We used heat-transfer models in a non-continuous bench reactorand scale-up fundamentals to achieve the same physical and chemical properties of thecatalyst as that in the laboratory sample. A correlation coefficient corresponding to theexperiment conditions, including the stirrer geometry, is presented based on the heattransfer equations in stirred tanks. This correlation can be used to estimate the heattransfer coefficient at larger scales, such as in a pilot reactor.
