Abstract
"> In the present study the reaction kinetic and dynamic modeling of the reactor for syngastransformation into dimethyl ether using a mixture of a metallic oxides (CuO, ZnO,Al2O3), and an acidic component (γ-Al2O3) as the catalyst has been investigated. Acombination of the Graff kinetic model for methanol synthesis and the Bercic model formethanol dehydration was correlated with the experimental results obtained in thisstudy. Activity and kinetic measurements were carried out using a catalytic fixed bedmicro reactor. The operating temperature range was 230-300 °C and the pressure was8 barg. The experimental runs were performed applying a wide range of catalyst to feedratios. A simple dynamic model for the reactor performance was developed and testedwith the experimental data. The mean absolute deviation, concerning the data for thesteady state conditions, was less than 8%.
