ABSTRACT

The project is the construction of fluidised bed reactor. After a detailed research mild steel was chosen as the material of construction based on its inherent properties. The construction process entitles the marketing out of the sheet to the specified dimensions. This was followed by center punching and cutting. The sheets are then joined together after rolling by welding. Finally, surface treatment like painting was carried out to give it a brighter colour and durable property. The dimension are:

Area of upper Nozzle = 4.56m2

Weir length of the nozzle = 0.16m

Area of upper frustrum = 4.36m2

Area of cylinder/vessel = 47.03m2

Weir length of cylinder/vessel = 0.29m

Area of the lower nozzle = 4.56m2

Weir length of lower nozzle = 0.31m

Area of the lower frustrum = 4.35m2

Radius of the perforated bed = 0.15m

Diameter of the perforation = 0.0251mm

Ration of length to Diameter is 2.1

The heat transfer coefficient of the material is 200w/m20C

The reactor constructed is a type of reactor that can be use to carry out a variety of multiphase chemical reaction example cracking of petroleum
