The document discusses the design of a trickle bed reactor for hydrotreatment of waste engine oil. In a trickle bed reactor the gas and liquid flow (trickle) concurrently downward over a packed bed of catalyst particles. Industrial trickle beds are typically 3 to 6 m deep and up to 3 m in diameter and are.

This paper aims to present the selection, simulation, and dimensioning of a trickle bed reactor at a laboratory scale. (fbr) is a type of reactor device that can be used to carry out a variety of multiphase chemical reactions. In this type of reactor, a fluid (gas or liquid) is passed through a granular solid material.
Early development of trickle bed reactor was focused on the needs of petrochemical industry, now applications of trickle bed reactors are extended to chemical industry, waste water.
Trickle bed reactors comprise a family of reactors in which gas and liquid phase reactants flow in downward direction (toward the direction of gravity) over a bed of solid catalyst particles. The sizing was validated with other authors.
