Abstract
The effect of residence time, jet position, jet size, catalyst mass and temperature on the recycle ratio in a jetloop reactor using a residence time distribution model is reported. The recycle ratio goes through a maximum as residence time changes. The recycle ratio increases as jet size, catalyst mass and temperature are reduced. The optimum position of the jet is between 0 and 5 mm above the top of the central draft tube.Keywords
