Abstract
The basic hydrodynamic parameters and liquid-solid mass transfer coefficients in a trickle-bed reactor working in the forced pulse flow regime induced by BASE-IMPULSE method were experimentally determined. The measurements were made for liquid with different physicochemical properties. The universal flow maps and equation correlating the measured values of liquid holdup were developed. The advantages resulting from the change in the way of feeding the bed with liquid were show Keywords: trickle bed reactor, periodic operation, hydrodynamic, liquid/solid mass transfer
