Carberry Spinning Catalyst Basket Reactor

Catalyst basket has a “cruciform” cross-section

  
   

The catalyst basket has a “cruciform” cross-section. The test catalyst is placed in the cruciform basket and rotated on a shaft. Each arm of the cruciform acts as a differential reactor sweeping through the fluid reactants at high speed. Propellers are mounted above and below the cruciform to direct fluid flow.
