  • Flow distributor for monolith reactors
    Patent number: 7032894
    Abstract: A device for distributing fluid into a monolith bed includes a plurality of flow channels stacked in order of decreasing diameter. The flow channels successively split a flow stream into a multiple flow streams prior to the flow stream entering the monolith bed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 5, 2001
    Date of Patent: April 25, 2006
    Assignee: Corning Incorporated
    Inventors: George Y. Adusei, Stephen A. Campbell, Wei Liu, Mitchell E. Odinak, Shantanu Roy
  • Monolithic catalyst dehydrogenation reactor
    Patent number: 6623707
    Abstract: Axial flow dehydrogenation reactors comprising multiple catalyst beds formed of honeycomb monoliths, the beds being separated from each other by heating stages to maintain reactant stream temperature, provide low pressure drop and improved conversion efficiency when used alone or in combination with other reactors, e.g., as reactor upgrades for series reactor systems incorporating radial flow reactor stages.
