Mass transfer and heat transfer accompanied by chemical reactions were incorporated in a dynamic non-equilibrium multistage model. A base case simulation was identified and established. The base case simulation showed the value of key performance indicator that is mass ratio of acetone consumed to isophorone produced as 1.54. The computational model was then used to understand and to evaluate influence of various key design and operating parameters on this key performance indicator. Influence of reactor volume, mass transfer coefficient and feed composition, location and temperature was evaluated. The simulated results indicate that the key performance indicator can be improved (reduce acetone consumed per isophorone produced) by manipulating acetone content in the feed and location of the feed. The presented results will be useful for realising performance enhancement of isophorone and other similar reactors. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Comparative NAPPES studies have been employed to understand the elucidation of the catalytic reaction pathway and the evolution of various surface species. The results confirm the suppression of the CO oxidation activity on the Co3O4 NRs in the presence of water vapor. Various type of surface species, such as CO(ads), hydroxyl, carbonate, formate, are found to be present on the catalyst surface depending on the reaction conditions. Vibrational features of CO, O-2, and CO, were observed and shift in binding energy of these features under the reaction conditions directly suggests a change in work function of the catalyst surface. Under dry conditions, CO couples with labile 0 atoms to form CO2; however, under wet conditions, CO predominantly interacts with surface OH groups resulting in the formation of carbonate and formate intermediates. In situ studies of oxidation of CO on Co3O4 shows that CO oxidation depends not only on surface Co3+ concentration but also influenced by Co-3/Co' ratio on the catalyst surface. The carbonate was found to be a reaction inhibitor at room temperature; however, it acts as an active intermediate at 375 K and above. Above the boiling point of water, Co3O4 NR surfaces begin to show the oxidation activity even in the presence of water vapor. The intrinsic role of intermediate species was used to derive a possible reaction mechanism under different reaction conditions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">37</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;4.509&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom4><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">20296-20305</style></section></record></records></xml>
