catalyst reactor / chemical / tubular / fixed-bed

The tubular reactor is packed with solid catalyst particles. The straight-through flow of gasses and/or liquids is suitable for chemi-cal reactions with rapid kinetics. The reactor can be configured for both upward and downward flow as required by the process.
