FIXED BED OR MOVING BED REACTORS WITH A RADIAL FLOW OF PROCESS STREAM TO BE TREATED COMPRISING IMPROVED INTERNALS

摘要

The present invention is directed to a reactor having a radial flow of a process stream to be treated which includes a modified interior structure which can be used to minimize an area of a catalyst which does not accommodate any of the process stream to be treated. The present invention also relates to use of such a radial flow reactor in a refinery or petrochemical process.
