How does catalyst particle size influence bed pressure drop in the synthesis tower?
Particle size of ammonia catalyst is a critical factor in bed pressure drop. Smaller particle sizes of ammonia synthesis catalyst can increase pressure drop, emphasizing the need for proper sizing and screening during loading. Maintaining the right particle size distribution ensures uniform bed packing, minimizes pressure variations, and optimizing the synthesis reaction. It underscores the importance of careful consideration during the loading process.
