Multiscale Reactors: Cleaning the Flows

November 3, 2014

Packed bed reactors are used in chemical synthesis and for effluent treatment and catalytic combustion, are often required for heterogeneous catalysis, and commonly include catalyst pellets.

Modeling Hydrodealkylation in a Membrane Reactor

October 27, 2014

Hydrodealkylation is a hydrogen-intensive process. We demonstrate using the thermodynamics modeling features in the COMSOL® software to analyze this process in a membrane reactor.

October 15, 2014

This blog post and embedded tutorial video demonstrate what inputs are required and what results you can obtain when modeling a porous reactor in COMSOL Multiphysics®.

Sometimes a Cigar Is More Than Just a Cigar

September 10, 2014

Are you a casual stogie fan? A cigar aficionado? We show off a simple model of a cigar to study the temperature distribution of the smoke and concentration of oxygen.

Isoelectric Focusing and the Migration of Chemical Species

July 21, 2014

Isoelectric focusing is a type of electrophoresis used by researchers to identify small chemical differences between molecules. Learn about using the COMSOL® software to analyze this process.

Modeling High-Performance Liquid Chromatography

June 13, 2014

High-performance liquid chromatography involves mixing a solvent from a reservoir with a sample zone containing the analytes to be separated and then pumping the mixture into an injector.
